The return of the Humpbacks

A surf launch off the St Lucia coastline is an experience on it’s own, not to mention the fact that this launch is the first phase of a two hour journey to experience whales. In St Lucia it’s almost always an early morning call that begins with a short journey over the 400m of beach, on a 4X4 vehicle, that brings one to the formidable craft that have been specifically designed and built by Danie Bennett, co-owner of Advantage Cruises. Danie Bennett of Advantage Charter is currently the ONLY LEGAL Boat Based Whale Watching Permit Holder in St Lucia , permit issued by Marine and Coastal Management .
