Swimming with Humpbacks in Tonga

Worth a journey
Rating:

Average rating 3.2 / 5.0 (17 votes)

Jump into the sapphire waters of the South Pacific Ocean and swim with one of the most majestic and impressive creatures of the sea. Patience is the key to interacting with the humpback; mothers protecting calves might avoid your path while curious juveniles will come out and investigate.

Encounters can last a few minutes or a few hours, but will prove to be unforgettable no matter the length. Don’t forget to admire the coral reefs of these waters, which are equally as remarkable. Tours are available between July and October.
