whale photography

Hi,

was wondering if any operations there specialize in whale snorkelling and UW photography sessions. Thanks!

I just saw this post hasn't been answered so I figured I'd chime in. We aren't allowed to approach whales within 100 yards and legally have to avoid them (cutting off, leapfrogging, etc.) What kind of underwater photography are you trying to do? Whales only?

It's the same on Maui - no one is allowed to get close. They take it seriously. One of the whale watch boats even has shrouded props so there's no chance of accidental contact.

I watch the "Bucket List Family" on YouTube quite often, and he went to swim with whales in Tonga. Cool stuff.

Amos is a legend!!!! Here's a shot he snapped of me diving on the Sea Tiger. Spent a few days with him and his passion for photography and large ocean critters is truly inspiring!
