Every year, between July and early November, many marine mammals, including humpback whales, migrate to the Pacific Ocean, and more specifically to French Polynesia. It is one of the only destinations in the world where you can observe them in their natural environment. This is a unique opportunity to admire them.

Moorea
Humpback whales, and the different species of dolphin and shark offshore will be observed during sea trips. Our Guide only permits the release of animals after it has been determined that weather conditions and animal behaviour are favourable. Regulations require us to swim long distances to approach animals in complete secrecy. It is mandatory to wear a flotation device. We supply the most suitable lifejackets for snorkeling and comply with regulations. You can wear a neoprene jumpsuit of at least 3mm if you do not wish to wear a vest. Unfortunately we cannot guarantee that you will swim with a whale on your excursion. What's wrong? We do not choose to swim with a humpback whale, it is she who chooses to swim with us. It is a wild animal, in the open sea, and weather conditions also have a major impact.
