See the Humpback Whale Migration
Bermuda
March and April in Bermuda bring thousands of humpback whales to the island who are traveling north to Canada, Iceland and Greeneland for the season. There are several whale watching tours during this time that allow you to get close, but not too close, to the gentle giants. At 50 feet long, we think you'll be able to see them just fine.
