Yesterday, 6/30/25, our 12:30 trip was lucky enough to get to watch an incredibly active group of humpback whales. We couldn’t count how many breaches we saw! Our captain and naturalist both said that a couple of the breaches were perhaps the closest they’d ever been to a breach. Of course we always follow all guidelines when driving our vessel around whales, and we turn our engine into neutral, but the whales didn’t seem to get the 100 yard memo! We were constantly keeping our heads on a swivel as we were surrounded by active surface behaviors. In addition to breaching, we also got to see tail throwing, pec slapping, chin slapping, and rolling. In total we probably saw about 20+ humpbacks!
