This excursion includes hotel pickup and dropoff in a private vehicle. Join our professional and qualified skippers on a 2.5-hour whale-watching tour, starting near the picturesque fishing village of Tamarin, and travel to the open seas to view these magnificent marine mammals in their natural habitat. Humpback whales can be sighted off the Mauritian coast between July and September/October when they move from the South pole to warmer seas near the equator to reproduce, give birth, and breed before getting back to the antarctic while the Sperm whales can be observed almost all year round. Once you get on board the speedboat, the skippers will start by briefing you on the most important aspects of this experience, including the types of whales that you will encounter and their habits and guidelines for sustainable whale watching. Please note that there is a 60% chance that you will see the whales but if that is not the case, we will be unable to provide you with a refund due to the high fuel costs, so please consider this before making the booking.
