Tips for Whale Watching

Hi Im 11 and I have been whale watching before and it's an amazing experience. But things can go wrong. 1.Always pick a boat you think you wont feel ill on - there's nothing worse than spendinng half your time feeling sick and unable to enjoy yourself. 2. If you have the time. Research the best coasts in the area for whales then find the best whale watching company. It might also be a good idea to book a reservation to avoid disappointment. 3. If possible find a company that can speak your language, then you can ask them questions about the whales or other marine life in the area. This is best. When I went whale watching in Tenerife all the instructor could say was 'whale whale whale'. Follow these tips and you should have an unforgettable experience.

Whale Watch Tips

If you get seasick easily, hang out outside at the back of the boat and look out at the horizon. Drink ginger-ale and eat saltines.
