Whale Tours
For the Whale Tours project, I crafted a visually striking, immersive website that brings the excitement of Arctic adventures to life. Key highlights include:
- Hero Video & Parallax Scrolling: A full-width hero section with muted video footage of icebergs and whales under the midnight sun, overlaid with clear calls-to-action to book now or learn more.
- Intuitive Booking Flow: Integrated a three-step reservation form for the three daily tours (morning, afternoon, evening), complete with date-picker restrictions (June–early September) and real-time availability checks.
- Interactive Tour Calendar & Map: A dynamic tour calendar that grays out off-season dates and an embedded map pinpointing departure docks, making it effortless for visitors to plan their trip.
- Responsive Photo Gallery: A custom gallery module showcasing high-resolution images of giant icebergs and whales, optimized for fast loading on both desktop and mobile.
- Local SEO & Performance Optimization: Tailored metadata and schema markup for “Arctic whale watching” and “midnight sun tours,” plus image-lazy loading and minified assets to ensure sub-2-second load times.
The result is a seamless, adventure-inspiring experience that converts curious visitors into booked passengers for once-in-a-lifetime iceberg and whale-watching tours.
