Trip Details

The Vava’u archipelago in northern Tonga is perhaps the most famous place in the world for swimming with humpback whales— and for good reason. The islands form a natural nursery for migrating humpback whales between July and late October allowing them to raise their calves in safety.

We have been operating our swim with whales tours in Vava’u, Tonga since 1999 and our dedicated and passionate Tour Leader & crew are experts. We know how to take care of every detail of your time with us.

We offer personally-escorted, small group/8 guests ‘snorkelling with whales’ eco-tours you will never, ever forget!

Our tours include 7 or 9 nights at a beautiful, beach-front boutique-style resort, with friendly and welcoming hosts, a pool, delicious food, snorkelling on reefs and in caves, beach combing on deserted island and definitely lots of fun!

We also include airport transfers in Vava’u.
