  • star rating  Best Whale Experience Ever. - When I tell you I swam with whales--- I am not exaggerating when I say that the baby humpback that was investigating us was less than ten feet away. The water clarity was spectacular, and the event was life changing, to say the least. Maire was one of the first to take folks out to slip into the water with the whales. He knows whale behavior and can see the resting whales hundreds of feet down in the water. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in spending time with the whales, whether in the water or on the boat, observing them from above. This is a local, family-run business. They are professional and very good at keeping everyone safe.

  • star rating  We'll book again  - We went with Maire on four tours in September.

    All four tours were very different regarding to communication and the whale experiences.

    Regarding communication we were missing a bit at the first tour. How to act in the water and how the tour was going to be.
    This was not the case on the other tours and we did learn to just ask if we were en doubt of anything. Or to let them know if we needed anything.

    Regarding the whales they managed to find the whales all four days, which was excellent.
    This company know the whales and they know when to keep extra distance in order to not disturb mom and calf. They don't bother the whales if there too many other companies in the water. Just being respectful.

    All in all we had really good times and we'll book again for sure.
    Maire was very friendly and helped us out even after our tours were finished. We really appreciate that.

    Our advice to people going on the whale tour:
    - Bring your own mask and fins. When you have gear they fits you 100% you'll have a better experience. They do have stuff to borrow but it might not fit you.
    - Let them know if you are in doubt of anything.
    - Be quick to get into the water and be close to the guide the guide.
