This is a great way to see whales and because they are much easier to spot from the air, the success rate is 98%, though of course you cannot approach as close as in a boat. After a safety briefing and talk about the marine environment, you take to the air for a thrilling 30 minutes flight with full commentary. Trips are weather dependent.
