Set out from Orient Bay aboard a private Lagoon 38 catamaran to experience one of nature’s most remarkable events: the migration of humpback whales through the warm Caribbean waters of St Martin. This seasonal charter takes place during peak migration months, when sightings are common, though never guaranteed.
Your experienced crew follows known migration routes, keeping a respectful distance while watching for whales, dolphins, and other marine life. The stable catamaran offers plenty of space to relax, observe, and capture photographs as the coastline drifts by.
Throughout the trip, enjoy a peaceful atmosphere with time to unwind on deck, take in the scenery, and learn more about these magnificent animals. Designed for nature lovers and families alike, this experience combines comfort, education, and the thrill of witnessing wildlife in its natural environment.
