Short Description: Swim with Humpback Whales in beautiful Tonga
Long Description: Our expeditions are 6-day, 9-day and 10-days during the humpback whales breeding season in Tonga. August - October each year.
Our main focus is boat trips out in the 'nursery' with the humpbacks - among the idyllic islands of Vava'u.
We have experienced guides and expert staff to guide you in the water with the whales each day. An rare and amazing experience. . .
There is also an opportunity to expoerience the Tongan way of life at a Tongan Feast and Dance night - at Hinekauea Beach where we experience the traditional delicacies and Tongan dancers.
A special day is set aside for whale watching in the morning then a BBQ lunch on an uninhabited snorkeling the lagoon, the coral gardens and Mariners & Mariners Caves.We have 1 or 2 leisure days during the tour for other activities.
The average temperature at this time of the year is a beautiful 24 - 28C and the water temperature around 24 - 28C. Perfect for swimming with the whales!
Swimming with the humpback whales is a special, unique and life-changing experience - we hope that after our expedition our guests fully appreciate these incredible mammals and the vital importance of their survival in our oceans.
I hope you will join us on this incredible expedition.
Testimonials: "I urge anyone with any interest at all to go and swim with whales, even if "it isn't your type of thing" it will be by the end of the trip - you will just want to keep doing it again and again. The trip isn't just about whales, it is about Tonga and their people, you experience just so much, its unbelievable, but the best experience is of course, swimming with a Humpback Whale!"
Jeni Johnston, Sydney, Australia
