Dominica is the only country in the world where the sperm whale resides all year long. Just a short boat ride brings you into contact with the world's largest toothed animal in the calm turquoise Caribbean Sea.
Whale watching operators follow strict codes of conduct, minimizing any disturbance, and never “luring” the whales. On the rare occasion when the whales may be elusive, you’re sure to see the acrobatics of hundreds of Spotted and Spinner Dolphins. Also Humpbacks Whales,Pilot Whales and other whales have been seen during our Cruises.

Great tour, along the coast, then we saw a whale. It is a small boat with up to 8 people. It is not a hunt for the animals like in other countries, you watch the whales from a distance so as not to disturb them. We made reservations through Viator's website, everyone else booked directly with PH Whale Watch & Dolphin Cruise and paid around $12 per person less...

We saw a lot of whales and they were awesome. The two guides that took us out were very knowledgeable and made the experience fun.

Both the guide and the Skipper were professional and in constant communication with other vessels to make certain that we had every opportunity to see whales. As a result, we saw seven beauties and had a great afternoon.
