Go on a wildlife safari to encounter humpback whales between Paea and Mataiea, an area that remains relatively unexplored (we are the only operator departing from Paea!) Our experienced and passionate guides will provide you with information about their biology and will supervise you if in-water encounters are possible, with the utmost respect for the approach regulations established by the DIREN. You will board Stenella, a recent, comfortable and spacious 28' boat. What our visitors particularly appreciate: * A preserved and little-explored area * Deep respect for the animals and their environment * Experienced and passionate guides * A comfortable and spacious 28-foot boat * A family-run, small-scale business
