点评:Thank you for the most amzing experience, I was told how good the swimming with whales was by someone when I did the lagoon cruise. Don't leave Aitutaki without doing it!
I rocked up Sunday morning hoping to find a trip knowing most things were closed, no problem they had spaces in the afternoon.
The boat was almost new, the crew were professional and there were only 5 passengers. We quickly found whales just outside the reef. When we jumped in there were 2 whales sleeping in 35m of water. The water was super clear and we just floated watching them sleep until the whales came up for air. The whales were very aware that we were snorkling above them and came towards us for a look before taking a breath and going back to the bottom to sleep. They came within 10m of us ... amazing.
For the full Bubbles Below experience get a coffee at the cafe, it was the best we had on Aitutaki plus as a free bonus you get the Faulty Towers experince with the lady making the coffee. She actually smiled and laughed at me (not with me!) after 4 days! But, she certainly made great coffee!
Tip, they only take cash, they didn't have card facilities.
翻译:非常感谢这次绝妙的体验!我参加泻湖巡游的时候,有人告诉我和鲸鱼一起游泳的感觉太棒了。离开艾图塔基岛,一定要体验一下!
周日早上我去了,希望能找到一个行程,因为大多数地方都关门了,不过下午还有空位,没问题。
船几乎是新的,船员很专业,船上只有5名乘客。我们很快就在珊瑚礁外发现了鲸鱼。我们跳进水里,看到两条鲸鱼在35米深的水中睡觉。水非常清澈,我们就在水里漂浮着看着它们睡觉,直到鲸鱼浮出水面呼吸。鲸鱼们很清楚我们在它们上方浮潜,会游过来看看我们,然后吸一口气,回到水底睡觉。它们离我们不到10米……太棒了。
想要完整的“气泡下方”(Bubbles Below)体验,可以去咖啡馆喝杯咖啡,这是我们在艾图塔基岛喝到的最好的咖啡,另外,作为免费奖励,您还可以体验“故障塔”(Faulty Towers),那里有一位女士在煮咖啡。 4天后,她居然还冲我笑了(不是跟我笑!)!不过,她煮的咖啡确实很棒!
