Between January 20th and March 29th, one of the largest Humpback Whale migrations in the Atlantic Ocean will take place in the Dominican Republic. During these winter months, thousands of Humpback Whales make the migratory journey from the polar regions of the North Atlantic to the safety of the warm Dominican waters to mate and birth their calves.

Humpback Whales are endangered animals, and were almost hunted into extinction. Today around 30% of their original population continue to exist in the wild, thanks to havens like the Sanctuary for the Marine Mammals of the Dominican Republic in the Samana Bay.

The Samana Bay Sanctuary is world renowned, and is one of the largest humpback breeding sanctuaries in the world. It is estimated that during mating season thousands of whales visit the bay and around 300 whales are present at any time. The high concentration of whales is what makes the Dominican Republic one of the principal places for Humpback whale watching.  Due to the strict regulations protecting the whales, the only way to get a glimpse of these magnificent creatures is through an organized whale watching tour.
