ITINERARIES


“Here you can come out on the water at any time of year and see marine life. For southern right whales, peak season is October and November, but


they start arriving from the Antarctic in May and June, then leave in December. Even out of southern right whale season, we have Bryde’s whales and humpbacks. The


great white sharks are here year round, but there’s a higher density between May and September when the Cape fur seal pups make their way into the ocean.” Alison Towner
