Humpback Whale Watching — Tour from Boipeba

Overview

Every year, between August and November, humpback whales leave the freezing waters of Antarctica and migrate to the coast of Bahia to mate and give birth. It is the only window of the year in which this meeting is possible — and the tour is led by a team trained in marine biology, not just boat driving.

The experience

Going out to observe humpbacks in Boipeba is to follow, up close but from a respectful distance, one of the largest migrations on the planet — females measuring up to 15 meters swimming alongside their newborn calves, often visible at the surface for minutes at a time. The guides have technical training in marine life, and the itinerary carries this DNA: they explain the behavior of the animals, the reason for migration, the signs that a whale is about to jump — the tour functions both as observation and as a living lesson about the South Atlantic.
