Scuba dive with whales

ScubaDiver_Ti · Apr 13, 2002

Hi, I am going to Baja California, Mexico in December, and I want to scuba dive whit whales, I know I need a special tank (whales do not like bubbles from scuba divers) but I can´t find any person who organize expeditions like this. Plz if you have any information about what have I to do to scuba dive with whales tell me, I will appreciate it a lot.

special tank without bubbles??? Are you referring to a rebreather???

If so, I don't think you will find an "expedition" like that.

Rebreathers are the pinicale of diving in my opinion and require very specialized training. They are the most complicated systems out there and are VERY expensive. The liability of just letting someone who is untrained in them is HUGE and I just don't think anyone would do it.

I dunno though, maybee you are referring to something I'm not familiar with..

good luck

well, if it is that dificult and if I need experience for that, then I would like to learn it lol, but if I need to study marine biology and spend to much money... humm then at least I would like to swim whit a snorkel whit whales, I am quite sure there is people somewere that make that, I will find it somewere, I promise, but if someone have more info I will be so happy about how fast I got the information

I know its a little dangerous, most if whales have baby whales (they like to play lol, however their mothers protect scuba divers) but is one of my dreams, I will be sooo happy if I can find how to do it

Checkout the link below to Bottom Time Adventures. Then run whale and dolphin diving trips to the Bahamas.

Oh Tanks you for the link, specialy this part

"Finally, enjoy the mother, calf, and escort groups. They often get within feet of the launches and allow those who desire a close up encounter with mask, fins, and snorkel. There is no other opportunity in the world that puts you close to so many humpbacks."

I Have to be there, tanks

Don't bother with a rebreather, just practice holding your breath so you can freedive.
