Did you know that Humpback Whales are among a small number of animals, including humans, known to create and evolve their own songs?

Each season, the males develop new compositions, and they spread across entire ocean populations within months.

Starting June 1st, these extraordinary creatures are returning to the warm waters of St Lucia, and Advantage Tours is ready to take you to them.

As one of only two legal permit holders in the area, we are authorised to bring you within 50 metres of the whales. No other boats get that close.

The whales are coming. Are you?

Trade busy city mornings for golden sunrises, crisp safari air, and unforgettable wildlife encounters in the heart of Zululand. From close-up rhino sightings to hippos drifting through the St Lucia Estuary, every moment becomes part of your story.

Our May & June Winter Special is designed for couples, friends, and families wanting a more personal safari experience, small groups, authentic guiding, and memories that stay with you long after the journey ends.

• 2 Nights Accommodation in St Lucia
