Tour Details
Whale Discovery Swim and Snorkel
Every year humpback whales leave the feeding grounds of Antarctica around July and head to the French Polynesian's warm waters where they breed and give birth.
On this exclusive and small group tour your expert guide will share fascinating facts about these magnificent animals as you leave the marina.
Board the boat for an exciting ride out to the whaling grounds. Once the whales are spotted breathing and surfacing your boat will slowly approach and, at the opportune time, your guide will instruct you to get into the water with your fins, mask, and snorkel.
Float in the water while these curious mammals come up to greet you. While under the waves you might even hear the song of a male as he is about to jump out of the water! Keep your eyes out for other whale species including Cuvier Beaked, Blainville and Pilot.
Dolphin appearances are a year-round phenomenon here and stingray sightings are also common.
This tour is a must-do for animal lovers! Book now and get ready for a magical day with the whales that you are sure to remember for a lifetime.
Please Note: Alcoholic drinks will be provided after the completion of the swimming portion of the tour. The boat available for this tour accommodates groups of up to 12 guests maximum. Please consider this information when booking.
