Australia’s Majestic Whales Encounters has announced its first ever whale swim adventures to the tropical paradise of Tahiti. The two, new, seven-night getaways in October, 2019, include accommodation at a luxury beachside resort, all meals, Polynesian cultural experiences and five days spent in the crystal-clear waters, searching for and swimming with humpback whales.

Reflecting increased demand for immersive holiday experiences, Majestic Whales Encounters has recently been expanding their tour program beyond Tonga, with the Tahiti tours following recent announcements of other new destinations for 2019 – Norway and Queensland – with Canada planned for 2020.

The new whale swim adventures in Tahiti will see guests sail by ferry from Papeete to the beautiful island of Moorea, with its striking mountain peaks, translucent lagoon, coral reefs, lush valleys and white-sand beaches. Guests will check in to the beautiful resort of Manava where they will stay in luxury bungalows for seven nights, each with their own private garden, terrace and plunge pool, as well as free WiFi and air conditioning. Each of the bungalows is just metres from the beach and guests can even opt to upgrade to an overwater bungalow.

The resort also boasts two bars, infinity edge pool, on-site spa and a restaurant – where guests will enjoy a buffet breakfast and a two-course dinner each day, and one night will experience a cultural dance and traditional Polynesian feast.

Five full days will be spent on a privately chartered boat built specifically for swimming with humpback whales, led by a skipper and a whale swim guide. The Tahiti climate is marine tropical, with warm temperatures sunny days all year round – perfect for swimming in the Polynesian waters. There will also be opportunities to safely swim with stingrays and reef sharks, and on their free day, guests can enjoy a relaxing massage or adventure activity – included as part of the package.

The seven-night deluxe tour starts on October 2 or October 9, 2019. Including seven nights’ accommodation, return ferry from Papeete to Moorea, five days’ spent swimming with whales, all dinners, breakfasts and lunches, a massage or adventure activity and the services of a tour leader, the package costs from $6999 per person, twin-share. Flights from Australia are extra.
