The Silver Bank, also known as the “Sanctuary for the Marine Mammals of the Dominican Republic”, provides a safe and protected wintering shelter for the entire North Atlantic Humpback Whale population, where they gather in thousands to court, mate, calve, and rear their young until they are strong enough to return to the North Eastern U.S. coast, between January-April.
During the week, guests will observe the whales at close range which includes above the water and soft in water encounters. You’ll see them spin and play, hear their haunting songs resonating through the water and sense the power and grace of some of the most intelligent mammals on earth – it’s a life-changing experience! All whale charters depart from Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic.
The Turks & Caicos Aggressor II is one of the few yachts permitted access to the Silver Bank during the Humpback mating and breeding season.
Once here, why not extend your stay in the Dominican Republic to explore its natural beauty, stunning dive sites in front of Bayahibe, Saona & Catalina islands, and take some time to relax at one of the finest white sandy beaches in the Caribbean!
The beautiful Turks and Caicos Aggressor II offers an exciting itinerary from January – April to the Dominican Republic to snorkel with Humpback Whales at the Silver Bank. This area, twenty square miles in size, is located north of the Dominican Republic and approximately the same distance from the Turks & Caicos Islands.
