SPERM WHALE EXPEDITIONS

SPERM WHALES

Imagine yourself in a calm, clear ocean, drifting calmly. Suddenly, loud clicking, strong enough to vibrate your body enter your awareness. You look around and here they are – a pod of Sperm whales – slowly swimming towards you, scanning you using their sonar.

 

The Indian ocean and Dominica are home to one of the world’s only resident pods of Sperm whales and possibly the best places to swim with them.

We have created an activity rich program which includes daily swims, land exploration and afternoon workshops.
