Questions & answers

Q:
How far in advance do you need to book?
A:
Depends on the time of year. Peak time, I would book weeks in advance to be sure you don't miss out on the experience.
Q:
How many times do you get to go in the water? Do you also look for manta rays?
A:
They divided the guests into 2 groups, which took turns in the water. We were in the water about 5 times over the course of the day, for a total of 55 minutes with the sharks. This …
A:
They divided the guests into 2 groups, which took turns in the water. We were in the water about 5 times over the course of the day, for a total of 55 minutes with the sharks. This provided tons of excellent viewing time and we were more than satisfied. My impression was that we had a good day, but with the spotter plane I think most people see sharks. We also saw humpbacks and orcas. You might see a manta on this trip but purely by chance, there are other places/tours where you see them.
Q:
If whale sharks aren't spotted is there an option for a partial refund or another opportunity free of charge?
A:
No not on the one we went on. Check all the companies and see if any other offer another opportunity. Would only do it again in the middle of the season when there are definitely …
A:
No not on the one we went on. Check all the companies and see if any other offer another opportunity. Would only do it again in the middle of the season when there are definitely whale sharks around. We did it at the end of the season. Also check the weather: BOM weather or download a few apps like Seabreeze for the swell etc. Lots of good weather apps. It's a LOT of money so research it all before you book. You generally have to book over a week ahead to get on the most popular boats we heard. Good luck!
Q:
Are wetsuits provided ?
A:
All equipment is produced including wetsuits, snorkel, mask and flippers
