    From drizzle to a sunny evening, today we saw over 40+ minke whales, playful pods of 50-60+ white-beaked dolphins and even a few shy harbour porpoises. Dozens of humpback whales impressed with close approaches, breaching, spy-hops and surface feeding, including the beloved mother-calf pair. A great day with all four of our most common species!

    Under clear skies and calm seas, we witnessed a spectacular gathering of humpback whales, including playful calves, close encounters and dramatic breaches, tail slaps and bubble-net feeding. Minke whales were seen surfacing all around, with some surprisingly close views. We were joined by over 40 white-beaked dolphins - another great day at sea!
