Overview

Humpback whales are one of the largest rorqual species; adults can grow up to 16 metres in length and weigh up to 36,000 kg. They are found all over the world and can migrate up to 25,000 km each year.

Catch the seasonal migration of Humpback Whales as they move between the warm waters of the Indian Ocean and the cooler feeding grounds of the Southern Ocean. In late August to early October, they can be seen off Chole Bay and Ras Mkumbi returning southwards. The waters to the South of Mafia Island are an excellent area to watch the humpbacks as they make their way up and down the coast as part of their annual migration. The most breathtaking moments are watching them breach, throwing themselves out of the water to land with a tremendous splash. Humpback whales are magnificent creatures with surprising acrobatic moves!
