      After pickup from your accommodation, you'll board a 26-foot speedboat for a 3.5-hour private tour with your own captain and professional whale-watch guide, with no other travelers on board. You may see mothers with calves, tail slaps, deep dives, or whales resting just beneath the surface, and with a private tour, your guide can adapt the pace and focus entirely around your group's interests. If conditions are safe and the whales' behavior allows, you'll enter the water with your guide for a respectful snorkeling encounter. Swimming with whales is never guaranteed, but whether you watch from the boat, listen to their songs, or snorkel nearby, this private Bora Bora whale tour offers one of the island's most unforgettable wildlife experiences, entirely on your own terms.
