Private Whale Watching Charter (Grand Turk)
» Turks and Caicos Islands » Turks and Caicos Islands » Turks and Caicos Islands
Our tours are done on a purpose built 46' Power Catamaran, powered by twin Yamaha f250hp outboard motors, configured with lots of seating, both sun and shaded areas, an elevated flybridge for better spotting whales from a distance, marine toilet and PA Microphone system for crystal clear narration of the tour by our on board marine biologist. We have a hydrophone on board which we will drop into the water and see if the whales will give us a song.
Board the boat at the beach and head out to an area that we have had many sightings in search of some whale activity. Once whales are located we head out to where they are and observe them from a distance being careful not to startle them or disrupt them. Sometimes they will approach the boat and hang around for a while, in these instances one of our guides will get in the water and allow you to accompany him for a closer look and hopefully some photos and videos to help document our visiting whales.

Recenzie
The boat was great. Spacious, built for many many more than just the five of us, but we had the full service staff on board. Lunch was great and we had many sightings, great interactions and a smooth experience. Glad we were on a boat with just the five of us, if there had been more we wouldn't have been able to get in the water with the whales at all.
As for our whale watching experience, it was truly once in a lifetime. We saw whale activity from the boat - flukes, flippers, breeches even. The marine biologist even put the sonar on microphone so we could hear the males singing. Frankie is an excellent and experienced captain who was able to spot and approach the humpbacks respectfully and skillfully. We certainly had to be patient and had to try more than once but were rewarded with an astonishing opportunity to snorkel with a mother an calf for over 15 mins.
