Experience hundreds of fully grown, protected humpback whales at their preferred mating and calving grounds.

Every year, humpback whales migrate to the Bay of Samaná to mate and give birth to their calves. Seeing humpback whales live is undoubtedly one of the most impressive experiences of your vacation.

During whale watching, you may observe humpback whales lifting their massive bodies out of the water to play or to impress the females. You may also see calves making their first swimming attempts alongside their mothers.

After the whale watching tour, we head to Bacardi Island for lunch, where you will have plenty of time to relax on the beach and swim (on the full-day tour).
