What's this trip all about ?
First things first……
 
This is NOT a Whale Watching Tour (watching them from a boat), those tours are cheap, commercial, touristy and available to everyone, we are talking about actually being in the water with these peaceful, gorgeous and totally harmless giants and that requires special permits and licences from the government, the Coast Gaurd, The Navy and the Wildlife Board.
 
These whale snorkelling permit from the various Government organisations are notoriously hard to obtain and are very very limited, and for good reason of course which means that this trip is only possible for a handful of people every year!
 
Whales are peaceful creatures and absolutely harmless to humans and we keep a safe distance from them as per regulation to protect them from us in fact 🙂
 
We have been doing these trips every year since 2015 and they are pure magic, every single time.
 
Important: Basic swimming skills are mandatory for you to be able to join this trip.
 
 You DO NOT need to be a champion swimmer but if you are not at all comfortable swimming in a pool, let’s say around 50 meters from Point A to Point B on your own without needing any help, then this trip is not suitable for you but we suggest that you invest in basic swimming lessons for the next few weeks and then come for this trip.
 

Life jackets are always on the boat for you to use in the water while snorkelling and in fact the fins you are going to be wearing on your feet while snorkelling are anyways a flotation device also by default, but if you really cannot swim at all without a life jacket then it just means that you don’t know how to swim and then this Sri lanka trip is not suitable for you.

In short, we just don’t want people who do not know how to swim at all to come for this trip because then the whole focus is on taking care of them panicking in the water instead of enjoying the experience watching the whales.

FOR NON-SWIMMERS we would suggest checking out our super epic Maldives Snorkelling & Scuba diving trip which is open to non swimmers where you get a chance to be in the water with the biggest fish in the world aka The Whale Shark and is available every month from January to June.

 

swimming and snorkelling with whales

 
*This trip is only possible in the months of March, April & May due to the migration pattern of Blue Whales and Sperm Whales around the area.
 
Only 5-6 people per boat allowed for snorkelling with the whales as per strict government regulation. 
 
Our trips are full of solo travellers, so if you are coming alone its absolutely safe, you will end up meeting and having a blast with awesome people just like you from all over!
 

This is the trip that defines the word extraordinary!

And we say that from experience having already gotten an opportunity to be underwater with the biggest living beings on our planet every year since 2015, that we have been organising these trips.

A Blue Whale, for example, is 80-100 feet long, the largest living being on our planet! Imagine a 10-storey building, underwater and moving next to you…. A child can swim through the arteries of a Blue whale!!!!

Whales are peaceful creatures and absolutely harmless to humans and we keep a safe distance from them as per regulation to protect them from us in fact 🙂

snorkelling with blue whales whales

You can choose either the 7 Nights/8 days trip (Snorkelling with whales” + scuba diving package) option which includes 2 Snorkelling with the whales excursions with us for 5 hours each day ( Full Details in the next Sections below)  and during the trip you  will also do a proper 3-4 day PADI Open Water Scuba diving License Course if you are a beginner scuba diver .

If you are already an Open water certified diver then you can come do your 2-3 day PADI Advanced Open Water Course plus some fun dives during the trip and if you are already an experienced diver, then just do some fun dives at the various dives sites around the area.

or 

You can come for a shorter 4 nights/5 days trip (Only snorkelling with whales package) option if  you don’t want want to do the scuba diving course or if you don’t have enough time to take a longer holiday. This shorter trip package just includes  the 2 snorkelling with whales excursions as a part of the trip and none of the Scuba diving courses.

Either ways, you will be staying at this beautiful beach side resort with all comforts to ensure you have a fantastic holiday….

Spacious rooms just off the beach, great breakfast, a beautiful swimming pool and gardens where peacocks are a common sight in the mornings!

And all this, right off a gorgeous long beach white sand turquoise water beach which is going to be your home during this trip.

The sunrises from this spot are just incredible!!!

 

Important Note: The reason you can only snorkel with whales and not go scuba diving with them is because firstly, the special Government permits we acquire allow for only snorkelling with whales to be possible since getting the opportunity to be in the water with whales this is a highly restricted activity.

And more importantly,  it is simply not possible to scuba dive with whales in general since they are always moving across long distances and are not just hanging around at one dive site waiting for scuba divers to come hang with them 🙂

So the only way to get to be in the water with them is to go to the general area they are moving around in on a speedboat to keep up with them. Then get in and out of the water many times to snorkel with them every time they come up for air every few minutes and move around the surface of the water for a few minutes each time.

“You Protect What You Love”, we believe…….

So here is an opportunity for only a maximum of 6 people in each boat to come along to Srilanka in April & May only and fall in love and hopefully become the voice for these almost mystical creatures that are racing extinction!!

IMPORTANT: If our group dates (mentioned in the DATES SECTION below) don’t work for you and you are minimum of 4 friends together already, then we can organize this trip on any dates of choice for you and your friends in March,April & May.

If you are alone, then you can only join in for our fix departure Group dates mentioned below.

Itinerary

Day 1Land In Colombo

Reach Colombo Airport and get transferred to Trincomalee on the East Coast of Sri Lanka, about 6 hours away by car.

Check in at your beautiful hotel next to the beach.

After you arrive in Trinco, the rest of the day is free to soak in the amazing view and the beautiful beach. In the evening you do a briefing with your scuba diving Instructor depending on the package option/ course option you have chosen.

NOTE: If you choose the short trip option( 4 nights/5 days -Only Snorkelling package), You will depart for home on Day 5 and If you choose the Long trip option (7 Nights/8 days- Snorkelling + Scuba diving course package), then you will depart for home on Day 8 as per the Itinerary below.

Day 2 - 3Snorkelling With Whales Days

After breakfast on Day 2 and Day 3 during the trip, we will go searching for Whales to be able to snorkel with them, on a fast speedboat which we have chartered specifically to get an opportunity to snorkel with the giants with the help of our Whale Guide and Naturalist who has 10 years of experience with the whales in the area.

Both days, the whale search and snorkelling excursion will last 5 hours and you will be back in time for lunch.

The second half of the day, even on these 2 Whale search/snorkelling days will also be free to do whatever else you want to just like during the course days. The beach we are on itself is so beautiful that you would probably just want to relax and get some sun and sand and be lazy after all the hectic activity in the first half of the day.

Important Note: The reason you can only snorkel with whales and not go scuba diving with them is because firstly, the special Government permits we acquire allow for only snorkelling with whales to be possible since getting the opportunity to be in the water with whales this is a highly restricted activity.

And more importantly,  it is simply not possible to scuba dive with whales in general since they are always moving across long distances and are not just hanging around at one dive site waiting for scuba divers to come hang with them 🙂

So the only way to get to be in the water with them is to go to the general area they are moving around in on a speedboat to keep up with them. Then get in and out of the water many times to snorkel with them every time they come up for air every few minutes and move around the surface of the water for a few minutes each time.

Day 4Relax or Go Scuba diving

  •  If you chose the shorter trip package option i.e Only Snorkelling and No Scuba diving Course, then Day 4 is a free day for you to explore the area around and do other fun stuff.

 

  • And if you chose the longer trip package option which includes the scuba diving course, then for day 4 after breakfast, from morning to early afternoon you will begin  your Scuba diving Course.

In the PADI Open Water Scuba diving License Course for Beginners, you will learn how to use Scuba equipment to breathe underwater starting from shallow waters during practise and moving to deeper waters as the course progresses.

If you are a certified  Scuba Diver already, you will spend the first half of the next 3 days doing 2 fun dives each day from morning to noon at the various amazing dive sites around Trincomalee with an experienced Dive Guide.

The rest of day will be free for everyone to hang out at the beautiful beaches, eat awesome food at the several restaurants and bars all around and explore the area. You can even go on some fun optional half day excursions to nearby National Parks which are pretty amazing amongst other things.

Day 5 Departure for Shorter Package Group

  •  If you chose the shorter trip package, today you will get transferred back to Colombo Airport and are good to take a flight back on Day 5 anytime in the evening because it will take 6 hours to get back to Colombo.

 

  • And if you chose the longer trip package option which includes the scuba diving course, you will continue to be busy from morning to early afternoon doing the Scuba diving Course or fun dives if you are a certified diver.

 

The rest of day will be free for everyone to hang out at the beautiful beaches, eat awesome food at the several restaurants and bars all around and explore the area. You can even go on some fun optional half day excursions to nearby National Parks which are pretty amazing amongst other things.

Day 6 and 7More Scuba diving

If you chose the longer trip package option which includes the scuba diving course, you will continue to be busy from morning to early afternoon doing the Scuba diving Course or fun dives if you are a certified diver.

The rest of day will be free for everyone to hang out at the beautiful beaches, eat awesome food at the several restaurants and bars all around and explore the area. 

Day 8 Departure for the Longer Package Group

You will get transferred back to Colombo Airport and are good to take a flight back anytime in the evening because it will take 6 hours to get back to Colombo feeling like a legend after having experienced magic!!!

“Why do I need to fill up a form to request for Price ?”

First things first, we are not asking for your details so we can “sell your data”!!

We are a small boutique travel company not some evil giant tech corporation dealing with millions of people and frankly we do pretty well for ourselves just selling our awesome trips 🙂

We are asking you to tell us your age and your city so we can understand who our potential customers are and where they come from so we can more efficiently target our advertising spends to relevant people, considering we don’t have the “millions of dollars” to spend.

We are asking for your phone number and email purely so we can send you the trip details on email and whatsapp so that you have a record of it incase you saw our trip ad post online while having your 5th drink or doing a million other things and forgot about it 15 minutes later.

Our automated system will follow up with you 5 days after the initial email and if you don’t respond, we wont bother you again.

This is it.

Sounds fair ? 🙂

Prerequisites & Safety

Important: Basic swimming skills are mandatory for you to be able to join this trip.
 
 You don’t need to be a champion swimmer but if you are not at all comfortable swimming in a pool, let’s say around 50 meters from Point A to Point B on your own without needing any help, then this trip is not suitable for you but we suggest that you invest in basic swimming lessons for the next few weeks and then come for this trip.

Life jackets are always on the boat for you to use in the water and in fact the fins you are going to be wearing on your feet while snorkelling are anyways a flotation device also by default, but if you really cannot swim at all without a life jacket then it just means that you dont know how to swim and then this Sri lanka trip is not suitable for you.

We just don’t want people who do not know how to swim at all to come for this trip because then the whole focus is on taking care of them panicking in the water instead of enjoying the experience watching the whales.

Group Size (Important)

Learn Scuba diving / Freediving With Whales In Sri Lanka is a special annual experience and  is only meant for a handful of people every year……

This trip requires special permits from the government, the coastguard and the Wildlife Department since being underwater with Whales is a heavily regulated activity unlike commercial Whale Watching Tours where you just watch the whales from a boa

We are happy that regulations are in place and Regulations mandate no more than 6 people in one boat to avoid scaring the whales with our presence!

Cancellation

Cancellation Policy:

This INR 5000 deposit you will pay now is fully refundable for the next 7 days anyway if you change your mind.

Even after 7 days and upto 30 days prior to trip start dates if you change your mind or let’s say if at all there is a last minute pandemic travel restriction; 60 percent of the total trip amount will get refunded to you instantly.

Only the remainder 40 percent of the total trip amount (which would have been paid out by us to our vendors by then to organize the event and we don’t want them to lose any money either) would stay on hold and you will be able to use that deposit money paid to us as credit on this trip next time or any BEEP trip in the future with no expiry.

So you wont lose any money at all just incase there is any uncertainty, its completely risk free.

Fair enough ? 🙂
