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.
OPERATOR: PH Whale Watch Dominica.
Departures: Daily at 9.30am and 1.30pm We also speak German and are back at your Cruiseship on time.

Spectacular whale watching with the Speed Boat

5.00Contacting Britney in advance was already very friendly. Very tried and friendly guides (one of them was Britney). It took some time to see whales - but it was beautiful. The boat tour is also a lot of fun, but is not recommended for people with back problems.
Didn’t have one

1.00You canceled for the day we wanted. We couldn’t do the day you had available because we’re on a cruise ship.

5.00Amazing experience from start to finish! The crew from the Sanae boat so obviously cared about marine life. Luckily, we were able to see sperm whales the day we went. Even if you don’t, you will enjoy the ride and the beauty of where the Caribbean meets the Atlantic. This was our family of 4 favorite experience of our lovely Dominica visit.

Sperm Whale sightings.

4.00Enjoyed our morning with Seli and Bridget. Whale watching boats coordinate when they see whales and we were lucky enough to see at least 4 sperm whales, 2 with young whales with them. We parked up beside the river in Roseau which was just over 10 minutes away and meant we did not need to negotiate streets and cruise ship traffic in town. If self driving, leave extra time to get into Roseau in the morning. There are WCs in the ferry port but you will need to ask where they are as they are not obvious from outside.
Whales abound
