Whale watching

Une expérience inoubliable, un petit bateau, nous étions 13 ce jour là et cela été parfait ! Nous avons pris le dernier tour l’après-midi et pas déçu avec le sunset au retour :) Au début nous avons vu les baleines de loin car accompagné très souvent de bébé mais nous avons eu la chance à la fin d’en voir de près et la c’est un moment exceptionnel et le capitaine a eu la gentillesse de nous laisser du temps supplémentaire pour en profiter! Merci !

Super expérience

Très bonne expérience avec la Pacific Whale foundation. Tout le staff était adorable, on a pu voir pas mal de Humpback whales, on a aperçu une baleine franche australe, quelques dauphins et une tortue a même très rapidement montré le bout de son nez. Les explications de la naturaliste étaient aussi assez intéressants. Je recommande !

Most amazing experience. Maddie and Scott freely shared their knowledge of the whales and were happy to answer all questions. Fantastic boat which enabled us to be really close, especially when they swam under the boat! Life changing. Thankyou so much for awesome day.
