Where to go · WINTER ACTIVITIES
The season here is short and the good boats fill first. Below: the 3 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Kauai’s 2-hour winter whale watch, with fast rafts, humpbacks, hydrophones, practical tips, safety details, and honest value advice.
“The boat ride is rough and long, but worth it when you see the whales. Long ride from cruise port to marina.”
Ride a winter Zodiac from Victoria to spot whales, seals, sea lions, otters, birds, and hear whale calls through a hydrophone.
“This tour was fun and enjoyable, even in the rain! We walked around town, taste tested a range of food and, learnt so much about the history of the area. It felt good to support local businesses.”
Review of Reykjavik’s winter whale watching and Northern Lights cruise, with practical advice on value, weather, timing, comfort, and sightings.
“We set off on 3hr whale watching trip and we managed to spot a whale not far from the harbour. We spent about an hour watching the whale dive and surface and it was fantastic to experience the sighting in the whale’s nature environment. unfortunately the northern lights evening excursion was cancelled due to bad weather. Highly recommend this operator for a whale watching excursion ❤️”
