Overview

Look for whales on this half day land excursion from Imbituba. You'll be driven in an air conditioned vehicle along the coast with your guide to three different spots where whale sightings are common. Along the way, you’ll also learn about the military past of this area, the indigineous Sambaquian people, and the one-stick canoe. Besides whale watching, you’ll also have a history and cultural lesson.
  • Learn about whale migration from your guide and why the region depended on them
  • Use your provided binoculars to get a good glimpse of the whales and their puppies
  • Try three places for whale sightings, Imbituba, Laguna, or Garopaba
  • Check to see if your hotel is on the pick up list, or arrange pick up from another spot
