We are pleased to yet again present our comprehensive range of the best in responsible Whale and Dolphin watching holidays, our 13th year of WildOceans.
On most of our departures, other aspects of the natural world are observed and enjoyed too. We offer experiences that are fun, educational and memorable in the company of like-minded people and led by some of the world’s top naturalist guides whose enthusiasm for their subject will quickly be transferred to you. We often use overseas leaders, based in the destination country so that you get to be shown round by someone who really knows their local area and your visit directly benefits the local economy.
Whale watching is very addictive, you have been warned! Cetaceans are often found in some of the most spectacularly wild and beautiful places. Our programme ranges from the High Arctic to Antarctica and everywhere in between. If you have never had a personal encounter with a cetacean, you are in for a real treat. Many people find it an almost mystical, and always, an up-lifting experience.
Amongst our new holidays for 2010 is a rare opportunity for multiple encounters with Narwhals and Belugas at their ice-edge spring home, or to search for the almost mythical white Spirit Bears in their Pacific rainforest home.
Enjoy seeing literally hundreds if not thousands of whales and dolphins on our cruise around Baja California and into the Sea of Cortez. Watch Orcas on patrol in Canada or groups of Humpbacks ‘bubblenet’ feeding in Alaska. In Antarctica we are getting increasing numbers of reports of very close encounters, with both Antarctic Minke Whales and Humpbacks ‘playing’ with Zodiacs, especially later in the season. In the last few years our Antarctica, Falklands and South Georgia voyage has also scored very well with whales, with Blue and Southern Right Whales being seen in addition to the more expected species. Watch Humpbacks bubble-feeding in Alaska whilst bears patrol the shorelines. Or come to paradise with us and enjoy tropical cetaceans and superb snorkeling in the Maldives and Sri Lanka. Explore the Galapagos with us in search of much of it’s amazing marine life, or come and experience Polar Bears in Spitsbergen or Churchill. Our selection of expedition or nature cruises is second to none, WildWings has pioneered many of them in the UK over the last ten years and continues to do so. Most of our voyages are excellent for seeing cetaceans.
This is just a sample of what is contained in the following pages or visit our website www.wildwings.co.uk for full details of all of our holidays. Previous trip reports are available for many to give you a real feel of what each trip is about. If you have any questions, want advice or further information just simply call or send us an e-mail.

Comprehensive pre-trip information will be supplied for your holiday including suggested clothing etc All you really need is a pair of binoculars, some waterproofs and a sense of adventure and discovery, we will take care of the rest!
The Oceans hold some of the greatest natural history spectacles on our blue planet and we look forward to you joining us to experience some of these for yourself in 2010 and beyond, see you out there.
