The complete whale experience with overnight stay. Combine an overnight stay with 20% off accommodation and 25% off admission to The Whale and a whale safari. Discover the fascinating world of whales at The Whale, then head out to sea to encounter these magnificent animals in their natural habitat.
Your experience begins at The Whale, the iconic experience and knowledge centre where you are introduced to the world of whales. Through immersive exhibitions and storytelling, you gain insight into whale biology, evolution and their close connection to the ocean – creating a valuable foundation before meeting them in the wild.
After your visit, the journey leads out to sea aboard a large and comfortable whale-watching vessel.

With experienced guides and whale researchers on board, you can observe whales up close in a calm, respectful and sustainable way.
