It was AMAZING! We saw a blue whale which is extremely rare. Nikolina is an incredible guide, very passionate an dynamic. She explained in details everything that we see on the ocean. The captain was quick when someone pointed the whale! We also had the chance to see dolphins at the end of the tour. What a wonderful experience thank you so much gentle giant and especially Nikolina!

Watched a couple of different humpback whales surface many times. One of the whales turned on his back a couple of times and splashed his pectoral fins several times. Extremely cool!

So it was early in the season, so we were a bit worried if we would see anything. Lets just saw we walked away stunned. Saw a couple of humpback whales within the first 20 mins, and then found a blue whale. The tour guide went speechless for about a min, she was just as amazed as we were. We tracked it for about 30 mins. The boat and captain were great, saw the larger boats in the distance, but they could not pivot quickly enough to catch it like we did. Probably one of the biggest highlights of the trip.

A dinghy tour that allowed us to see the whales up close [which is impossible from larger boats, it is absolutely worth paying a little more to use this type of boat]. The guide is a very nice and competent girl. The landscapes are extraordinary, and you also visit a colony of very cute puffins. They provided us with waterproof suits which, in addition to keeping us warm, guarantee safety in the water. Absolutely perfect

Very professional, good supervision and location.
I recommend speed boats for the whales; If you are lucky enough like us to have seen them.
Dress warmly and bring thin gloves in addition to warm gloves and a wrist strap for your devices. In the bay even with the sun it gets very cold on the hands.
A magical experience! I left by buying a t-shirt that I can't wait to wear as a souvenir when I return to Paris
