TONGA ISLANDS

 

 

 
 
This trip is kind of special: come with me to the other side of the World and meet one of the biggest animal living on Earth: 15 meters long for 25 tons!

Kingdom of whales...

Comments

This trip takes place in August 2009. Most of the time, the Nai'a cruises in the Fidji area, but between August and September, this beautiful boat goest to Tonga Archipelago to meet humpback whales. During the austral winter, the whales enjoys the quiet water of this part of the world to mate and raise their calves.

  • Advantages: We can meet and snorkel with the whales in the best conditions ever! If you stay quiet they can come very close!

  • Disadvantages: Underwater dives are not as interesting as it could be: lots of dead corals and overfishing have reduce the number of fishes...
