Swimming with Whales in Vava'u EP.22 || Sailing the South Pacific || Tonga

Swimming with whales in Vava'u. Swimming with humpback whales was the highlight of the Vava'u islands. Humpback whales come to Tonga to breed and give birth and Tonga is one of the few places in the world where you are allowed to swim with them. We had our friend Sharon onboard for 10 days. Sharon had never swum with whales before , so spending time up close with a mum and baby humpback was an amazing experience for her. The weather is a little tricky as instead of the typical south east trades, we get a week of westerlies. We find good shelter in Hunga lagoon even if the entrance is a little tricky. In between kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling and drone flying, we find time to celebrate Shazza's birthday. And did we mention, we swim with Humpback whales :-) Footage from August 2018 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ☕️ Want to Buy us a Coffee?

We are Jo and Rob, a slightly crazy husband and wife team, who decided on a whim to sell up and set sail . We had no prior sailing experience when we bought out 40ft catamaran 'Double Trouble' , but hey, mere details right? We moved onboard in January 2017 and have been learning ever since. We love our life , both on and under the oceans. We're both super keen on protecting our precious environment ,so amongst other things, we both follow a plant based diet. No fishing rods for us . Join us for fun and games as we set off around the world at walking pace. 👏Credits: Thanks to 'Shure ' microphones for voiceover sound. 🎼Music: DT Theme tune - 'Happy' by MBB https://soundcloud.com/mbbofficial Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...
