Fantastic experience, great team and beautiful atmosphere and scenery. Had a beautiful day out on the water, seeing heaps of wildlife. The team provided a variety of drinks, snacks. Everything went super smooth. We swam in the net behind the boat, loads of fun and it all felt super save, as they assisted us in any way needed. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to get a close look at the beautiful whales. Plus for respecting the animals at the same time, as e.g. we always kept a secure distance to the female and her newborn.
