Whale and Dolphin Watching Cruise in St Lucia

5.Whale and Dolphin Watching Cruise in St Lucia

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 157 reviews · from $65Best value

Set out from Captain Mike’s at Vigie Marina at 8:00 am for a 3 to 3.5-hour search for sperm, humpback, and pilot whales, plus several dolphin species. A local marine expert explains animal behavior while the crew serves rum punch, soft drinks, and water. The boat returns to the marina.

“We managed to see a small pod of Sperm whales, two adults and a youngster, and later a single whale. Heavy rain and a little rough sea limited viewing opportunities. Dolphins were conspicuous by their absence, still a great opportunity and would try again on a future holiday. Crew very friendly. There a no included transfers and you should add that cost to your overall expense.”
