About this experience
During the tour, you can enjoy a delicious breakfast, while sailing offshore in search of the whales.
Our boat is specially designed to appreciate the sighting from any angle and has a hydrophone, so you can hear its incredible underwater singing.
The tour is guided by a marine biologist, who will share fascinating facts about whale behavior, family ties and habits. Although they usually live in small groups, the strongest bond is always between the mother and her calf. During the summer, they cooperate with each other to feed and survive.
We begin the adventure from the navy, touring the bay and being attentive to the signs of the sea — the blow, the fin or the jump that announces its presence. When we find them, we follow strict environmental standards that guarantee their protection, maintaining a safe distance without interrupting their natural behavior.
