Close Encounters with Humpback Whales in French Polynesia 2025
I wanted to write a review about my trip. I went with Bluewater Dive Travel on the humpback whale trip in September. it was amazing! Mark Strickland was our guide and he was so kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. I learned a lot about the whales. I was worried that I wouldn’t see many whales but we say whales every day we went out on the boat. it was a littler harder than I expected with the swimming and I got sea sick a good bit. However, it didn’t take away from the experience whatsoever. It was the experience of a lifetime! Also, I was surprised at how gorgeous the accommodations were, pictures don’t do it justice. It was paradise! I wasn’t sure which dive companies to choose and I was so impressed with how respectful they are of the whales. I really wanted to go with a group that respected nature. If you want the experience of a lifetime with a knowledgeable and respectful group, this is the experience for you!!
