Tahitian Whale Retreats
Our Mission
To continue to create experiences for people to be immersed in the beauty and power of raw and wild nature, as she is our greatest healer and teacher in raising our awareness that we are here to take care of each other!
These retreats are also stepping stones towards our greater vision and dream of creating healing retreat centers with a Healing water temple at its center.

8 days and 7 nights
On the tropical island of Mo'orea, a short ferry ride from Tahiti.
The whales migrate to here every year for mating, calving and resting.
Mo’orea is one of the few locations in the world where it is legal to swim with the wild whales.
We will go out on the boat for 3 days, 4-5 hours at a time, to meet and swim with the whales.
In the warm turquiose waters of Mo'orea
Welcome to Mo’orea, a heart shaped island in French Polynesia.
Known as the heart of the ancient land of Lemuria. An interesting fact is that Mo’orea’s ley lines are in alignment with the great pyramid of Egypt.
Have you ever dreamed of being in warm turquoise waters and swim with one of the biggest and gentlest animals in the world- the humpback whales? We are so excited to invite you to connect with the whales on one of the most beautiful islands on Earth.
We are passionate about raising community consciousness and awareness and sharing the gifts we received during our 2023 retreat on Mo’orea, that deep level of healing, absolute bliss and magic needs to be experienced by everyone.
The moment you make eye to eye contact with a whale your life changes. The magnitude of the whale energy creates a quantum leap on our well being as humans, families and communities. This retreat is an opportunity to build a relationship with the whales and to learn to take care of each other and our planet. We are all one family!
The whales are the open heart therapists of our time, teaching us about fluidity, flow, opening our hearts and becoming more childlike. They are cosmic midwives assisting in the birth of the Aquarian vision of peace, unity, collaboration and co-creation.
Black-tip reef sharks are harmless to humans. You can stand here, on a shallow sand bar in the lagoon, where the water is crystal clear and warm. Stingrays have become accustomed to sharing their sandy bed with snorkelers and can be very inquisitive and curious when swimmers are around. Be ready for up close and personal encounters with these wonderful reef creatures!
Participants are not obligated to get in the water if not comfortable. The sharks and rays are visible from the boat, so it’s possible to stay on the boat and still see them in their natural habitat.
Mo'orea is a unique place to intimately meet stingrays and black-tip reef sharks.
Hear the mystical song of the male Humpbacks and float immersed in their sound.
Humpback whales are one of the few known species to possess spindle cells in their brains.
These are linked with feeling empathy and intuition about others' feelings.
The healing they bring to humans is beyond words and explanations.
To swim with the humpback whales in Tahiti you, as you guessed it, need to be able to swim.
You don’t need to be a ninja in the water but you do need to be comfortable enough to swim in the open ocean. Boats can not go too close, so you must swim at least 100m to the whale. If you get cold easily, bring your own wetsuit. We will likely see dolphin and flying fish too!
Meet your Mermaid Guides
