Anne Gordon grew up boating in the San Juan islands in the Pacific NW of the USA and remembers seeing Orca whales passing by as she did her homework on the beach near her childhood home in Olympia, Washington.
Anne co-founded Whale Watching Panama in 2005 when she realized nobody was offering whale and dolphin tours in Panama. She loves spending time out with the whales and dolphins and likes nothing more than to share the beauty of the whales and dolphins and her knowledge and love of them with her clients. Anne also enjoys the spiritual aspect of the whales and dolphins and is a certified Dolphin Energy Healing Practitioner. On her Whale and Dolphin Wisdom Retreats, she shares more about the spiritual lessons she has learned from the whales and dolphins. She leads magical 5-day spiritual Whale and Dolphin Wisdom Retreats where you will open an intimate and transformational connection with the whales and dolphins in the tropical paradise of the Pearl Islands, Panama and with Gray whales in Mexico.
