Our whale watching tour with Naturaliste Charters in Augusta was unforgettable. We were lucky enough to witness a juvenile whale playfully flapping its tail for nearly 10 minutes—an absolutely mesmerizing sight! The onboard marine biologist and crew were fantastic—knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and quick to point out sightings so we didn’t miss a moment. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!

Pia was an amazing host and the rest of the crew too. We saw 5/6 whales and calves too. The crew were very attentive to the needs of their passengers and looked after me when I felt unwell.
