Whale Watching · HUMPBACK WHALE TOURS IN MOOREA
The good humpback whale tours in Moorea fill up weeks ahead in season and the best ones go first. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Set out from Moorea at 8:30 am with Corallina Tours for three to four hours on the lagoon and open ocean. Guides such as Francesca and Tamahere lead whale swims, then take you to rays and black-tip sharks. Snorkel gear and water are included.
“Although we saw whales, it's unfortunate that the whales were constantly moving, so we couldn't swim together with them.”
Spend about three hours off Moorea seeking humpback whales and other marine life with guides such as O’Neil, Doris, Mata, or Chewy. You may hear whale song, watch mothers and calves, and swim near whales when conditions and wildlife behavior allow. The whale season runs July 20 to November 20.
“Unfortunately we didn't have a good whale watching experience. This tour was supposedly operated by Pacifik Attitude per Viator but instead Moorea Moana Tours showed up. There was a large group of us who got divided into 2 groups anRead more”
Spend four hours aboard Mana’hau with guides such as Nicky, Fabien, Lolo, or Lingee, seeking humpback whales from July to November. Swim or snorkel with marine life, visit Moorea’s bays, and try the towed subwin board on a private trip for up to eight people.
“Such a wonderful experience with our guide, Nicki, and her father! Knowledgeable and personable, they geared the trip to our needs and wants. We never felt rushed as we snorkeled with stingrays, sharks, and turtles. And you cannot beat the scenery!”
Join captain Tamatoa and a certified crew for a four-hour humpback whale trip from Coco Beach Restaurant in Moorea. After a safety briefing, you’ll search the coast by boat and may enter the water in small groups when conditions are safe. Swimming is optional.
“Wonderful experience. Very friendly and professional crew. We felt safe and comfortable throughout the whole cruise. Highly recommended service! We were very lucky to see a baby humpback from very close distance multiple times. Surpassed our expectations by far 😁”
Pick an animal, a boat or a season.
