TOUR BALEINE - Observer et Nager avec les baleines

Yohan and Nico were both nice and talented! It is such an art to find whales. Especially for us it was a rough sea and we could have waited for several hours in line to watch a whale but Yohan decided to move so we dont have to wait like that and lucky us we found 3 whales together including a giangantic one, we went in water 3 times ! Incredible and unforgettable moments.

A wonderful whale-watching experience! Our guide, Henua, and the captain picked us up right on time at the hotel’s dock and introduced us to the fascinating world of whales, explaining their behavior, migration patterns, and how to behave respectfully in their presence. The team works with the utmost respect for nature and the animals. Along the way, we even collected some rubbish floating in the water—convinced it would bring us some good karma! After about an hour, we found two whales. Henua guided us into the water, making sure we had the best possible view and experience while keeping us safe. He also help me in the water. We watched the whales swim right beneath us—it was absolutely magical. I highly recommend this tour! It’s an unforgettable experience and a day we will remember forever.

Went into this expecting we might not see whales in the water since that’s just nature, and we were fine with that risk. What we weren’t prepared for was the organizational side of things. At our spot, 4-5 other boats had already arrived, and regulations only allow 3 boats in the water at once — so we had to wait our turn. By the time it came, the whales had moved on. What was frustrating is that our guide didn’t try pivoting to another location, even though we asked about that possibility early on. Maybe every spot would’ve had the same crowding, but for an expensive tour on a boat that wasn’t particularly high quality, it would’ve been nice to at least attempt somewhere else. Because we were stuck waiting further out, we also barely got to see the whales from the boat itself. If you go in expecting basically a 4-hour boat ride with a small chance of a whale encounter, you’ll be fine. If you’re hoping to actually see something, know that the outcome may come down to boat traffic and timing more than the whales themselves. I wouldn’t recommend committing half a day to this if your time in Moorea is limited, unless you’re comfortable with the real possibility of seeing nothing at all.

This tour is pure magic. Seeing whales in their natural habitat is so special. It’s something I’ll never forget.

Performance up to what I expected. Pro, attentive (respects the rules of distance and approach of whales), correctly gives instructions and enforces them. Guide and nice captain. Good to know: you have to be a good swimmer and not be too sick by boat (think about eating well), several sick on ours (3/9) and we could not hear better of the different cruise ships (info: each guide can only go in the water with 6 people max so the others wait on the boat at a stop). I made my dream come true thanks to them, thank youii

Incredible experience! Our guides, Louis and Nico, knew their stuff and prioritized safety, and clearly know these waters and how to swim with the whales. We quickly found mama and baby whales thanks to their experience. They helped others in our group that struggled with the swim and provided great information. We went November 7th, and brought our 12 year old daughter. Initially, I was unsure if she’d be up for the challenge but it proved to be well within her ability. Highly recommend this company.

Hinicko was the best guy ever The captain was amazing too We have the best time ever The crew really knew what to do

I highly recommend this company! The crew was incredibly dedicated, professional, and truly caring — both towards the guests and the animals. You could really feel their passion and deep respect for nature. Thanks to them, we saw whales up close in a safe and respectful way — an unforgettable experience!

What an incredible experience, with an incredible guide! We were travelling to Moorea on a cruise so I was very worried about communication without having wifi. At first I was very upset, I tried reaching out on several occasions looking for answers on where to meet, how do we know who they are, what if the ship can’t dock but we have no wifi; those sort of questions. It took days to get a response and every time I asked something in return to their response… days. The night before we left, we were ready to cancel because of the lack of communication and not knowing for certain what was happening. Thankfully everything worked out for the better, and our guide Henua, was absolutely incredible. He is a huge reason this trip is getting 5 stars. His people skills, knowledge, and leadership through this whole experience was amazing. Apart from the whales, he is the reason for the 5 stars, I give him as a guide 5+ stars for this experience. Thank you for this amazing opportunity!

Team on top! We were well accompanied and guided, safety first and foremost that of the whales! I recommend 1000% I was able to realize my dream, swim with a whale and its calf, magic, I still cry!
