Blue whales- East Timor

Have you ever wanted to experience the awe of being present with the biggest animal that ever lived? This is a unique opportunity to do just that.
Each year populations of blue whales travel south from the warm water of Indonesia to the southern ocean where they spend most of their year.

Join us for 5 days of swimming with these amazing giants of the sea. No SCUBA certification needed.
