Your home on Mo'orea, is the Cook's Bay Hotel & Suites where you will stay in a room facing beautiful Cook's Bay and stunning Mount Rotui. An open air restaurant overlooking a gorgeous coral reef where you can watch colorful tropical fish as you eat. In the mornings you can sometimes even see Humpback whale mother's and their calves resting right in front of our hotel!
The island of Mo'orea is formed in the shape of a heart! We will visit local stores, see how the locals live and take a tour to the center of the island, the center of the heart to visit temples and Anne will lead a powerful meditation to connect to the land, the heart, the native culture and Lemuria. Mo'orea is also known as the heart of the ancient land of Lemuria.
Anne Gordon is your host for this once in a lifetime experience.
Anne is an experienced Humpback whale watching guide, as well as a Whale Wisdom Expert and Certified Dolphin Energy Healer. She will eagerly share with you her insights, knowledge and wisdom she has learned from the whales in her years with them. Anne will lead guided meditations to meet your very own whale spirit guide as well as Dolphin Energy Healing sessions for the group.
Anne has been swimming with Humpback whales for years in Panama. She knows how to swim with them respectfully and draw them in for the most incredible encounters possible.
Have you dreamed of swimming in crystal clear waters of the South Pacific with Humpback whales?

Whale and Dolphin Wisdom Retreats
6 days of swimming with the whales. Each day we will go out for a 5 hours to meet the whales. The whales are often found within minutes of leaving the island. We will spend as much time as possible with the whales. We practice respectful, responsible whale watching practices, always give the whales the choice and control over our encounters.
Besides the gentle Humpback whales, it is very likely we will also see Spinner and Roughtooth dolphins and even Pilot whales, if possible, we will swim with them too. Near our hotel is a beautiful coral reef where we can swim with friendly stingrays and harmless reef sharks too!
French Polynesia declared itself a Marine Mammal Sanctuary in 2002 offering protection to all of the 16 species of Whales and Dolphins found here. The lagoon and ocean surrounding Moorea, French Polynesia is warm and clear, making it one of the best places in the world to swim with and observe Humpback Whales in the mating and nursery areas.
Soft-in-Water Encounters is the accepted term for the legal technique of swimming with the whales. This ensures that everyone safeguards the integrity of the humpback whales at all times. Mo'orea is one of only places in the world where it is legal to swim with wild whales.
It is always a good idea to purchase travel insurance for your trip in case you need to cancel your trip or tour for any reason. We recommend World Nomads for all your travel insurance needs.
We love World Nomads because they are dedicated to promoting responsible travel and have a give back program to support charities around the world.
