BREACH...

Guide Summary and Photographs
BREACH!!!! Can’t count how many times we said that today, there were mother calf pairs of Southern Right whales breaching, left right and centre! We even had one male, who opened his mouth nice and wide in the middle of his breach, a rare sight indeed! The Southern Rights weren’t the only ones leaving the water today, we had lots of half breaches from the Great White sharks, mostly from a well known shark, “Hotspot”, who’s infamous with our sister company, Marine Dynamics, for his active behaviour. To add to the excitement we found a mother calf pair of Humpback whales, just behind Geyser rock, who were breaching like crazy, both together and separately. A very exciting find as this was the first Humpback calf we’ve seen this season! Just goes to show, you never know what to expect when out on the water…
