What to expect

Each year, humpback whales migrate from Antarctica to warm waters in the southern Pacific to breed, give birth and educate their young.
From October cetaceans regroup before beginning their long return migration to Antarctica at the end of November. Participating in a whale watching tour is an extraordinary and magical experience. The tours are accompanied by a professional crew, Guide and Captain to ensure a safe and rewarding experience. The average duration of a visit is 3 to 4 hours, a perfect time to discover, share and observe these magnificent marine mammals.
ATTENTION The observation period is allowed from 20 July August to 20 November, subject to DIREN approval.
The maximum permitted size in the water is 6 swimmers + 1 Guide.
Child <12 years and adult non-swimmer / observer = no launching with whales.
