All data is stored in C:Users{username}AppDataRoamingGARMINBaseCamp) on a Windows installation (hidden files).

On a Mac the databases are in bundles that usually have an extension .bclibrary and they can be stored anywhere the user wants them so you just need to search for files with that extension. The default location is in the user library /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Garmin/BaseCamp/Database, where it is stored in a gdb file but I place my libraries as .bclibrary bundles in other places that suit me better.
