Responsible whale watching, Snorkeling, Great food, Super crew - We loved the entire trip basically. Set off early morning at 6.30, after a safety briefing and introduction from the crew we set off in a catamaran.
After a... read more hearty breakfast, around 3 hours into the sail we saw our first pod of Dolphins.
Half an hour later, a call came to the captain about a Whale sighting. We set off to see it.
The captain kept the yacht well away from the Whale, and we got a great opportunity to see it swim freely. The yacht of Sail Lanka came to a standstill with its motors off. We did see some of the other motorboats getting closer to the Whale.
We finished off with snorkeling in the bay. The crew had lifeguards and life buoys, so they taught been the most frightened of the passengers to swim!
Thank You, Sail Lanka and the crew of Jade. The food was great, so was the customer service.
(And to think we almost didn't go on the cruise after having read negative reviews on Trip Advisor. I am jolly glad we didn't take these reviews into account. ) Sail Lanka is truly the best responsible whale watching crew out there in Sri Lanka.
