TONGA
SEPTEMBER 2025
VAVA'U, TONGA
Immerse yourself in the unparalleled splendour of the deep blue as you join Brooke Pyke, an award-winning ocean photographer, on this epic Tongan adventure. Witnessing humpback whales in their natural habitat is a magical experience. Every year, thousands of these gentle giants make their pilgrimage from Antarctica's icy waters to the tropical haven of Tonga for mating and birthing. Brooke devotes her life to ocean photography and guiding travellers to educate and inspire about the wonders of the oceans. Join her and come face to face with one of earth's most magical animals.
Make your base in the island paradise of Vava'u, where every day you'll venture out on a private boat, led by one of the world's most experienced humpback whale boat operators to get the best chance to interact with these gentle giants of the deep. Elevate your underwater photography through exclusive Masterclasses led by Brooke, capturing ethereal moments that will last a lifetime. But that's just the tip of the iceberg! Explore mysterious blue caves and hidden beaches, all while enjoying the warm hospitality of your new Tongan community
