Whale watching

We are whale watching addicts and when it comes to wildlife it is our favourite thing to do. We have undertaken whale watching in various parts of the world and continually seek out new places to witness our beloved whales. One of us even has a tattoo of Humpback :-)

​

What amazes us every time, is the fact that whales are the largest animals on Earth, yet they radiate a unique sense of grace and elegance that sets them apart from all other animals. The feeling of joy and humbleness when you spot a blow or the fluke of whale close to your boat or on the distant horizon is still indescribable to us.

What we love about Whale Watching...

Despite their size, they can disappear in the ocean and you never know where they'll surface again. Whale watching is peaceful and exciting
