Opis
Train your eyes with a marine naturalist, spot whales and dolphins from a small boat, then learn to snorkel a sheltered reef. Breakfast and all gear included.
Most whale trips ask you to sit and wait. This one asks you to look.
You meet your naturalist guide at Mirissa Fishing Harbour for a short spotter's briefing: how to read a blow, a fluke and a dive sequence, how to call a sighting by clock position, and why the boat keeps its distance from the animals. Each guest gets a species card and a sightings log, and takes a turn as lookout.
With the captain and guide, you head out in the early morning light to search open water for whales and dolphins. Sightings are possible in season but never guaranteed, and the boat never chases an animal. Whatever the sea offers, your log fills with what you actually saw: seabirds, flying fish, dolphins, perhaps a whale.
The second half moves to a sheltered, shallow reef. Before anyone swims, the guide runs a short skills clinic in shallow water: fitting the mask, breathing through the snorkel, clearing water and floating calmly. Then you swim in a guided group, with the guide in the water, looking at reef fish and, with luck, a turtle. Touching or chasing marine life is not allowed.
Back on deck, you have breakfast while the guide reviews the group's log and explains what you saw and why it lives where it does.
This is a beginner-friendly learning trip, not a deep-sea expedition. The season for whale sightings off Mirissa is roughly November to April, and sea conditions can change the plan.
