  Everything was really right. Although we did a tour here at Uvita at the end of the whale watching period in mid-October, the experience was unique. Humpback whales almost close to touch and all in a relaxed atmosphere. Our guide spoke great English, because we can't speak Spanish. Our group was nicely arranged with 6 guests and there was ample space on the 11m long boat for up to 24 guests. In addition to the guide, there was a boatdriver and his co-pilot. The three had constant contact with other boats to manage the whale sightings in a coordinated manner. After half an hour we had spotted three humpback whales, two adult animals with calf. It was never pushed or unpleasantly put on the whales' body. In the stand gas it went next to the animals, never before or behind. Each of us could take great photos. Then it gin at a bird rock, where we could also jump into the sea. In between there was water and fruit on board. After the tour, which took 3 hours, the guide even sent us photos and videos via Whatsapp. Great tour. Highly recommended!

  Stunning, great staff, safe boats and we saw a school of mum Humpback whales with new pups, went out further to see a couple is large males (simply massive animals) - all breaching whilst flanked by dolphins. Went to a new area with larger bottlenose dolphins all around... Then went to stop at a beach area where they threw rocks to get coconuts down from a tree, show us how to break into them on one of the most impressive beaches we've ever seen. Stunning morning frankly.
