    All I can say is this was the most wonderful experience; it was ten times better than I had expected. The captain JB was amazing and was so committed to ensuring that I had a great encounter with the humpback whale. Our guide, Nathan was so knowledgeable, kind, patient and his love of humpback whales was so sincere. I got to see a mother, daddy and calf, and if that wasn't enough I got to see a whale breaching out of the water, truly breath taking. I was in Papeete for one day after completing a cruise with Nowegian Cruise Line. I arrived in the port at 0800 and had plenty of time to go downtown to the pearl market and then caught a taxi to the meeting area which cost $20 and start my swimming with the whales adventure at 1pm. I was back to my hotel by 430pm. ready to catch my evening flight. Everyone was very jealous and had regretted not joining me on this amazing adventure. This was a bucket list dream that I never imagined I could never experience. I have a serious shark fear but felt very safe thanks to my wonderful guide Nathan and I have a new appreciation of the majestic, gentle beauty of the humpback whale.

    The crew and captain were fantastic! I really enjoyed this small group experience! The whales were so curious and this was truly a once in a lifetime event. The weather was rough, and the crew did their best to make us comfortable. I would highly recommend this adventure!

    I just had the most amazing day on a private whale watching trip! Both Vehiatua and our whale guide were fantastic. They made sure we felt safe, respected the animals, and really focused on giving us a great experience. The lunch they provided was delicious, too! We saw so many incredible animals, but the highlight was definitely swimming with over five whales. I've been in French Polynesia for three weeks and done six whale swims, but this company was by far the best. I’m so grateful for this magical experience; it’s something I’ll remember forever! Highly recommend! Will absolutely use this company and recommend to anyone travelling to French Polynesia.

    Unforgettable morning encounter with two whales, expertly led by captain and owner Vehiatua (aka JB) with experienced professional guide Nathan. Shortly after our briefing by Nathan, Captain spotted whale activity and with great deliberation we entered the water. His advice on proper whale etiquette served us well the next 3+ hours as we swam with the pair of whales watching the male do a flirty dance. Larger groups of whale watchers seemed to disturb the pair but with us they rested, breached, slapped fins and tails and put on a proper show. We believe it was the combination of captain and guide that made this trip phenomenal.

    JB was amazing. Excellent excellent tour. With our time in French Polynesia we did two whale tours, one here and one in Moorea. This was the better one. First our guide changed the location due to the weather, waves and whales. This saved us so much unpleasantness. He was very thorough in his explanations of what we were doing and what to expect. We spent time chasing two whale sightings. The second was a huge success. A once in a lifetime, unbelievable, fabulous experience. Not to be missed. Afterward we sat in the boat and watched other whales coming to the surface. Our guide was not in a rush. He actually offered to take us to see the turtles afterwards, but I must admit we were exhausted by this time. A great company and a great guide. Highly recommend!!!

    What to expect

    Every year we are fortunate to have the presence of humpback whales in our waters. After a long migration from Antarctica, it is here in Tahiti, in this haven of peace, that they come to breed, give birth and rest. We are fortunate to be able to offer such observations and share with you unforgettable and breathtaking moments. To offer you better services, we offer a different formula than usual, our tour is limited to 6 passengers, creating a more friendly and relaxed atmosphere, allowing the crew to ensure a quality service and safely out of and/or in the water. It also encourages a more respectful approach and interactions with these large marine mammals. Snacks, fresh fruit and drinks (water, juice) will be served during the tour. Snorkeling equipment (palms, mask, snorkel) will also be available if needed.
