Explore our trips centred on photography from boats, all designed around photographing marine life from the water, offering intimate perspectives that are often impossible to achieve on land. Working from small, well-handled vessels allows for low-level viewpoints, quiet approaches & fluid repositioning, while maintaining a respectful distance from natural behaviour. Group sizes are kept deliberately small to ensure unhurried time on the water, responsive fieldcraft & meaningful photographic opportunities. As with all wildlife photography, sightings are shaped by seasonal patterns, weather & time in the field. Trips with a strong focus on marine life by boat are often found in Africa, Asia, Botswana, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Central America, Colombia, Costa Rica, Europe, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Japan, Kenya, Madagascar, Morocco, North America, Norway, Peru, Poland, Scotland, South America, Spain, Sweden, Tanzania, Tibet, Trinidad & Tobago, & the United States. On our photography holidays, this approach is frequently applied to subjects such as Adonis Blue, Aesculapian Snake, African Buffalo, African Civet, African Elephant, African Fish Eagle, African Houbara Bustard, African Leopard, African Lion, & African Skimmer.

    Location: the United States

    Nothing happens quickly with bubble-net feeding. Whales circle below, birds gather above, & the surface stays calm - until it doesn't. This photography holiday runs during the short seasonal window when the behaviour is most likely, keeping photographers on the water & ready when it breaks.
