WHY IS A PRIVATE WHALE WATCHING TRIP 10X BETTER THAN JOINING A GROUP TRIP?

If you have ever spotted whales and dolphins on a panga full of tourists before, you surely thought the following:

1. I wish I could move around the boat to see the whales better!

2. I wish the people in front of me weren't holding their camera in the way of my view!

3. I wish I wasn't sitting in a middle seat.

4. I wish I could stand up to see better but I would obstruct the view of those behind me.

WHEN IS WHALE SEASON?

The official humpback whale season is July 15th - October 15th. During this time, mama humpbacks come to these waters to give birth and teach their babies basic life skills.

CAN YOU SEE HUMPBACKS OUTSIDE OF WHALE SEASON?

You can see humpbacks outside of whale season, but it is not likely. During the official whale season it is unlikely to NOT see them.

WHICH SPECIES ARE LIKELY TO BE SPOTTED?

Over twenty species of whales and dolphins can be found here, including large resident populations of spotted, common, rough-tooth, bottlenose and spinner dolphins, and migrating populations of beaked, pilot,  fin, orca, false orca, blue and humpback whales who come here to mate and breed. Although most commonly sighted independently of each other, it is not uncommon to see pods of whales accompanied by large schools of dolphins.
