What To Expect

Come with us for an amazing encounter with the whales! On board one of our speed boats, our crew will use a hydrophone to try to localize the whales along the west coast. Their blows can also help localize them. Sperm whales can be observed all year round while humpback whales can be observed between June and October. Once on site, our crew will give you more information about these majestic marine mammals. We will respect approach rules and minimum distance in order to avoid disturbing them. Don't forget your cameras to immortalize this wonderful moment! Water and soft drinks will be served during the tour. The tour ends at around 1 p.m. We guarantee a 60% chance to see the whales.

Really good that we saw the whales but nobody mentioned that we would get absolutely soaked and they were aware as the staff put their googles On So if booking take waterproofs and a towel and water as we was not even given this until we got back . It was freezing out in deep Water and becUde of this I wanted to return back before seeing the whales and staff were obviously aware that peole got wet as on the way back told to remove life jackets to dry ourselves so not other customers could not see that we were all soaking wet

We had the most amazing experience in this short tour. We were lucky to see at least seven whales and on our way back as a bonus We saw a large number of dolphins near the shore.
