Whale Diary

10:00 - This morning we had moderate seas and winds, with the sun peak through the clouds here and there. We searched around a bit before finding a travelling Humpback whale. We stuck alongside it for a bit until we got distracted by a pod of around 10 white-beaked dolphins! Some of them were shy while others were a bit more curious and coming closer to our boat. We ended our tour with a quick stop by the humpback again who now changed to feeding and treated us to a nice and high flukedive in the end. On our way we made a quick stop by the puffin island and then sailed happily back into the harbour.

14:00 - Weather conditions were similar to the morning as we sailed out for our afternoon at sea. We found the same humpback whale again as the morning and it seemingly still feeding in the same area. It went for moderately long dives changes direction often until all of a sudden.. A breach! The whale leapt out the water, starting a long sequence of breaching, peduncle throws and tailslaps! What an incredible show this was! To conclude the tour, we also saw a small pod of white-beaked dolphins and caught but a glimpse of an elusive minke whale. What a great afternoon!
