It’s possible, especially if the sea is rough; an hour is still a short time, but if you’re prone to seasickness, avoid days when the swell is heavy and opt for calmer afternoons instead.
It may go ahead if conditions remain safe, but may be cancelled or postponed in the event of rough seas, strong winds or deteriorating weather conditions.
It’s possible, but not guaranteed: the Gouf de Capbreton is an area known for its cetaceans, but sightings depend on the season, the time of day and a bit of luck.
