Flights through us
Cape Town – St Helena – Cape Town from £780 ($990)

We can take payments in GBP, USD, EUR, AUD or ZAR

If these dates don't suit you, we also arrange trips to St Helena year-round.  See here.
Created by pro-UW photographer Christopher Bartlett, owner of Indigo Safaris. Christopher has visited St Helena in 2018, 2019, and 2020 and has been involved in whale shark conservation since 2009. He has led trips to the Galapagos and the Maldives with Dr Simon Pierce, founder of the Marine Megafauna Foundation, adviser to the IUCN on whale shark conservation status, and regarded by his peers as the leading whale shark researcher in the world. Christopher brings a decade of fascination with these gentle giants to the show. Bigspottyfish (and their friends the Bigflappyfish) are very close to our hearts, and the MMF is one of the key conservation organisations that we sponsor each year. 

Whale shark interaction

St Helena is home to the only known seasonal aggregation of adult male and female whale sharks, from January to March. In March 2019, the first courtship between two whale sharks was documented, and some of the females are clearly pregnant. 
They tend to frequent certain dive sites that are sea mounts or ledges. Current regulations prohibit deliberate SCUBA diving with whale sharks, but permits snorkelling and chance encounters on SCUBA.
On this trip, we have two planned whale shark snorkels, and if they appear on a dive site whilst we are diving, we are free to stay and enjoy. If the whale sharks happen to be on the dive site when we arrive, we will snorkel with them, and dive after. 

Diving
The diving on St Helena is diverse and very interesting.
​The limestone cliffs on the leeward side of the island host some beautiful caverns,  also packed with fish, many of which are endemic, and make for superb photo opportunities. Lava fingers running into the sea attract Chilean devil rays and pinnacle sites are home to schools of Rainbow runner and jacks. There are a handful of excellent wrecks too. See here for a list of dive sites.

Snorkelling
The divers get two afternoon whale shark snorkel trips. Non-divers get two afternoon snorkels and two that we will schedule on site, either AM or PM, depending on conditions and what else you want to do. There are also good opportunities to see large Chilean Devil Rays, a host of warm water reef fish, and millions of the endemic St Helena Butterflyfish, an experience akin to being in a snow globe.

There is a small supermarket in Half-tree Hollow and other food shops in Jamestown. Fresh fish can be purchased in Jamestown, a five-minute drive away. 
 
Deluxe accommodation
The 4-star Mantis Hotel is a combination of restored historic buildings dating from 1774 and a new contemporary building situated in the heart of Jamestown, a few minutes’ walk from the sea front, swimming pool, museum, Jacob’s Ladder, public library, archives, shops, and bars.
 
The buildings originally served as an officer’s barracks for the East India Company, who administered the island at the time. They served as military accommodation up until the last garrison left the island in the 1900’s. The original buildings were constructed from stone, bonded together with mud and mortar, pointed and rendered with lime which also formed the whitewash, with teak and iroko joinery and flooring. This 30-room boutique hotel has a large restaurant, the best on the island, bar and guest lounge and two outdoor terraces.
