Water entries take place in the open ocean. A good level of physical fitness and strong swimming skills are required. Whale watching takes place during winter in the Austral Islands, so please bring warm clothing for the boat ride, a windbreaker, a towel and sunscreen. If you are prone to seasickness, please consult your pharmacist the day before your trip. If you bring your own equipment, a full-length wetsuit at least 3 mm thick is mandatory for buoyancy and protection against jellyfish. A 5 mm wetsuit will provide extra warmth if you have one.
Cancellation
The deposit is non-refundable if you cancel your booking or fail to attend on the day of the tour. It will be refunded in full if our team cancels the tour due to adverse weather conditions or a technical issue.
