Human - Whale Encounters

Whale Encounters. Research. Conservation.
We believe that the human-whale exchange can help restore human connection with the whales and the ocean

Freediving Holidays is evolving

Over the last few years we have come to the conclusion that the name “Freediving Holidays” does not fully reflect our ethos or everything we do. We do not only cater to Freedivers and put more emphasis on the marine animal exchange and education than on the training aspect of the trip (We do offer Freediving oriented trips to the Cenotes in Mexico). 
For this reason we are now transitioning to use “HUMAN WHALE ENCOUNTERS” as our business name. 
On future emails and on our social media platforms you may now see this new name used. Rest assured – we are the same company but with a facelift 🙂

As someone who is obsessed with marine life, freediving, and fishing, there is no better experience than joining freediving holidays for whale swimming in Tonga. The crew and staff made all my dreams come true. It is truly paradise out there and experiencing the intimacy of mother humpbacks and theirs calves and the testosterone of the male heat runs was absolutely mind blowing.
