Experience:

You will be met by our tour guide at the piers of the Trincomalee Harbour where your Whale Watching Tour will commence at 6.00 am. The journey by boat takes approximately an hour to reach the deep waters of the Indian Ocean where the whales are commonly spotted. The boat reduces its speed and engine noise when it is nearer to the site and will be stopping at a safe distance at least 300 feet away. Your closest approach will be approximately 100 feet.

These waters off Trincomalee are home to a variety of whales, including blue whales, sperm whales, and fin whales. On calm days, schools of dolphins can also be spotted swimming nearby. The best time to witness these marine giants is from November to April, when the seas are calmer.

This tour promotes responsible and sustainable tourism, encouraging all guests to be environmentally conscious and avoid littering. After approximately 3 hours at sea, you will return safely to Trincomalee Harbour, carrying memories of an unforgettable wildlife encounter.
