Review for: Whale and Dolphin Watching Experience

Tickets for the platform must be purchased in advance, and you can use them directly with the QR code when you arrive at the pier. You really need good luck to see whales, and there are many weather factors that affect the boat schedule. The scenery on the sea is quite beautiful. In this bay where many dolphin families live, we only saw two jumping up. There was also a whale a hundred meters away from us. It would take about 10 minutes to breathe before it would come up again, or maybe even longer. Fortunately, we saw the tail of a whale. It would be very touching if we could watch it from a closer distance. There are guides from the Natural History Museum walking around on the boat, who will kindly introduce tourists to the knowledge related to the dolphin family and whale ecology. Tourists can also ask them any questions.
