Whales in Dominica - Whale Watching and Snorkelling

Join me for a snorkelling trip and whale watching in Dominica - The Nature Island. And always remember, sightings are never 100% guaranteed ;)

If you had asked me years ago what was number one on my travel bucket list, I would have said seeing whales in the ocean, whale watching or whale spotting of any kind! Did you hear the swhale clicks? :) This was a magical experience and I am thankful for every moment. Seeing whales left me speechless and it was the perfect reminder that our planet is full of majestic animals, rich marine life and we need to continue to protect it, every day!
Weather you are inspired to go snorkelling in Dominica or even book a whale watching trip, I hope you enjoyed my first travel vlog after a long time!

[@stephenbarnard8672]

Hallo Sandy, our precious planet needs our help more than ever, thank you for sharing these special moments of one of the wonders of the deep.

[@SandyMakesSense]

[@SandyMakesSense]

Ah haha thank you Julie :) Hopefully this took you away dreaming for a bit 🥰

[@eme.manson]

Such a beautiful experience and you're so authentic, it's really nice to see you enjoying this so much. Nature is certainly the best asset we' ve got and we ought to make an effort not only as inhabitants of our corner of the planet but also as tourists to reduce the negative impact we make in the world. Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures in the Caribbean!

[@SandyMakesSense]

Thank you for writing this comment 🥰❤️ so true and so important

[@awaywithpurpose7182]

Stunning creatures!

[@SandyMakesSense]

They really are ❤️❤️❤️

[@bobbilynnsmith5146]

You had me all choked up too! What a whale of a good time you girls had on Dominica. I hope wildlife is having a chance to recover while we humans figure out our new normal. This video made my afternoon, thanks for sharing.

[@SandyMakesSense]

Oh wow thank you so much :) I was really hoping this video would move people you know :) For me it was super hard to edit because I got so emotional every time haha

[@juliaklotzbuecher4008]

I'm leaving this comment before I got to the whale part because im so excited omg omg omg omg

[@SandyMakesSense]

Hahaha I love it! I got very emotional editing the whale scenes so hope you’ll like it :)

[@jasvendracharmaine2940]

[@redmoonsmoon]

Thanks, Sandy, beautiful video. One on my bucket list to do to see whales. :)

[@SandyMakesSense]

It was mine too! I still almost can’t believe I got to see this 🥰🥰🥰

[@olgawojcik9270]

I have been waiting for this vlog since you went! I think it was February or maybe January and I loved all your stories. This is really my dream come true too and it made me motivated to work hard and be able to afford something like this soon when lockdown is over. Thank you Sandy

[@SandyMakesSense]

Ahw I’m sure you will get to experience it soon, too! :) If you really want to see some, Dominica is a good shout as the chances are much higher than anywhere else! :)

[@bilalumer720]

Sandy.... Love you... ❤️❤️😍😍

[@SandyMakesSense]

Haha Ahw well thank you!

[@bilalumer720]

Really love you why you laughing... I like you to much.... I see your video just for you not for your info ☺️😂😉

[@rahmatcaunhye3108]

Fabulous! Dolphin watching is quite common in Mauritius!

[@SandyMakesSense]

Never actually been to Mauritius :) But I did Dolphin watching in Madeira a few years ago :) It was beautiful too :)

[@singhgentry6818]

What an amazing life experience! Totally ready to travel again

[@SandyMakesSense]

Hopefully we get to go soon together 🥰❤️ Or even back to the Caribbean hehe

[@gurjsohanpal3394]

@@SandyMakesSense that'll be exactly what is required after lockdown. I've never been to the Caribbean - can you believe that?!

[@SandyMakesSense]

Destination 2021 hehe

[@civis.revixit]

very nice. thanks for the upload sandy.

[@SandyMakesSense]

Can’t believe it’s finally time hey :) ❤️

[@currylinus384]

I like snorkeling trip.I want to join with you for snorkeling trip and whale watching

[@SandyMakesSense]

Haha let’s go 2021!?

[@khezzzzz]

I enjoyed watching you enjoy it. lol

[@SandyMakesSense]

Haha amazing :)

[@hiransilva5759]

Wonderful experience

[@SandyMakesSense]

Actually maybe the most amazing experience of my life 😍

[@Alan_Mac]

Really lovely vid, Sandy.

[@SandyMakesSense]

I just decided it was time to start travel content again :) We’ve waited too long right :)

[@masterandii]

Amazing! We went on a whale watching tour in the US, but unfortunately we did not see any. The guide said we were in the 1% club who weren't lucky enough. So we got a second ticket for a ride. But we never went there again.

[@SandyMakesSense]

Ohhh wow I have to say 1% is so small that you were almost lucky being unlucky :) !! Maybe it wasn’t meant to be that day :)

[@valinaharry4707]

Thank you for visiting Dominica. Thanks for your positive comments and having such a wonderful time. ❤❤🙏🙏🇩🇲🇩🇲🇩🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@SandyMakesSense]

Our pleasure!

[@stephenparker6362]

Hi, Sandy, that was fantastic, back in the days when social distancing was not the phrase of the year and hardly anyone had heard of covid 19, let's all keep our fingers crossed that we will soon be able to get back to something more normal. I'm sure you can't wait to travel again, we can't wait to see you travel. Where will you go on your first trip and when?. Looking forward to your next video soon.

[@SandyMakesSense]

Hey Stephen, I don’t know yet but for now it seems like my first trip might be a wedding in Italy in September this year :)

[@SophiesSuitcase]

i love this video! xxxx

Next step - a week of humpback whale swim in Vava'u Northern Tonga.. Mind blowing joy...

[@shiringaouir3172]

Wow 🤩 I wanna do that

[@SandyMakesSense]

Hopefully you’ll get to go soon when this is all over? 🐋☺️

[@saskiafurstone6090]

Sandy i looked at flights to Dominica but you have to change in antiga is this correct?

[@SandyMakesSense]

Yes exactly! That’s what we did too. You’d fly into Antigua with let’s say Virgin and then take a little plane to Dominica from there. I’m currently working on my blogpost which will have all the info of how to get there ❤️

[@SunriseFireberry]

A whale of a tale. A big splash. Wonder if whales have memories like elephants? Wait until Sandy meets mighty blue whales, the biggest creatures ever to grace this planet. Their tongues weigh as much as an elephant, & their newborns are [only] 8800 pounds, tiny. :-)

[@SandyMakesSense]

Sandy meets blue whales 2021? :)

[@SunriseFireberry]

@@SandyMakesSense Yes! Sandy meets the gentle giants of the animal kingdom. I think the biggest one was only 36 yards long. Typical blues weigh in at a measly 420,000 pounds. And they love to eat krill.

[@SandyMakesSense]

I don’t really think you can see whales like that in the UK?

[@SunriseFireberry]

@@SandyMakesSense Dunno where u can see the the mighty blues. google it! :-)

[@paulbrown3820]

Excellent video Sandy, not jealous at all (I'm been very sarcastic) I could tell how much the sighting meant by your face at the end. looking forward to next weeks video.

[@SandyMakesSense]

Hands down one of the most incredibly experiences ever! And sorry you feel jealous but I waited until lockdown starts to ease so people can start booking travel again when they watch this :)

[@juliaklotzbuecher4008]

me too very jealous hi hi

[@paulbrown3820]

@@SandyMakesSense I'm jealous in a good way. :)

[@SandyMakesSense]

Ahw done be! Hopefully you can go in 2021? :)

[@SandyMakesSense]

I know that feeling :)

[@persuasiv4774]

Fan meeting in London !!!

[@SandyMakesSense]

Ok? :D What do you mean?

[@hiransilva5759]

World famous blue whales watching place is sri lanka (mirissa)

[@SandyMakesSense]

Yes this is definitely on my list for the next time I visit Sri Lanka!!! 😍😍😍

[@pinkcammy3464]

Hey Sandy, not sure if i missed it in the video, who did you go whale watching with?

[@vanessafoteu6635]

Who did the whale watching tour?

[@alison9313]

When I saw the prices on that menu, I wondered WHAT currency those dollars were in?! ($60 for a lunch) but then I looked it up and there was an East Carribean Dollar that's valued at about 0.37 cents of a USD, so the $60 lunch was $22 in USD = 16GBP, so I guess not SO bad :)

[@SandyMakesSense]

Haha yes :)

[@rafaelbreno2981]

+1 sub, looking foward for the next videos xd

[@SandyMakesSense]

Oh yay! Rafael, welcome to my channel ❤️

[@niksdad1950]

What's the name of the company you watched whales with please, need to know if I can fit it in with a cruise stop😊
