Itinerary
Day 1
Whale watching boat trips are a fabulous way to get really close to these majestic gentle giants of the sea, the Southern Right Whales. Humpbacks, seals, penguins and sometimes dolphin maybe seen too.
The Whale watching season is between June and December each year, with the largest number ever being spotted in ONE day of 196 whales in the bay (counted by plane) so thats whale rush-hour to you and me :-))
Mother whales are near to give birth, so many infants are also spotted along side their mums.
Boat trips go out 3 times per day and can have room for up to 40 persons per trip, while an upper deck allows you a fabulous vantage point to take loads of photos - (weather dependant)

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
