Swim with Giants: Freediving with Humpback Whales in Tonga

Untouched by time, you’ll stay in a private beachfront cottage just meters from the ocean. For one extraordinary week, you’ll have a front-row seat to one of nature’s greatest migrations.
Slip quietly into the ocean as sunlight dances on the surface. From the blue, a shadow appears – and then another. A mother and calf glide past, curious and calm. In Tonga, the whales decide the encounter and when they do, it’s sheer magic.
With just 4 guests in the water at any time, every swim feels deeply personal. Some whales cruise by in silence, others linger, roll and play. No two days are ever the same – and every moment is a gift.
Midweek, we’ll gather for a traditional Kava and ‘Umu Feast – a cultural experience that celebrates the heart of Tonga.
