We then head out in search of the “gentle giants,” enjoying superior viewing and comfort on board. Throughout the trip, our friendly, knowledgeable crew provide personal attention while the Whale Specialist interprets marine life and explains whale behaviour as you watch them in action. A professional videographer is on hand to capture the highlights of your excursion.
