Under the Department of Wildlife Conservation laws boats must stay at least 100 meters away from a whale They must reduce speed to a no wake crawl and approach parallel to the animal NEVER from the front or rear Avoid the cheap street touts book with ethical operators like Raja and the Whales who strictly follow these laws

The Coast Guard actually patrols the waters now and will fine captains who break the 100m limit
