Whale Study Week
|
|||
Departure dates:
Our Whale Study Week lets you hang out with humpbacks and come to know these curious and acrobatic giants. It is a great opportunity to participate in actual whale research or whale lovers can simply enjoy being in the company of these majestic animals as they travel and sometimes play in their northern feeding grounds. For groups with a special interest in marine mammal biology, we often provide special evening presentations on whale behaviour, marine mammal entrapment research, whale biology, dolphin intelligence, whale distribution, and general marine ecology. Wildland Tours president Dave Snow has taught marine mammal biology in Canada and the United States and has been involved with field studies with some of the world's best known whale researchers. You do not need to be an expert to enjoy this holiday; the program is suitable for any nature enthusiast who wants to enjoy the company of whales. And although we do try to collect useful scientific information, the holiday is simply a wonderful experience for anybody interested in fun, photography, and a unique adventure. Please Note: The Tour itinerary is for guideline purposes. We make every effort to ensure we get to enjoy calm seas so the order of events on this holiday may be rearranged to suit your comfort and the local weather. In the unlikely event a dramatic change in whale distribution takes place we will travel to where the whales are.
