Whale Diary

10:00 - Another great tour in this fantastic week! Immediately after leaving port we found a very active pod of harbour porpoises, around 10 of them. Then we moved on and we found 4 humpback whales! They were in pairs, and some distance apart. The second pair was comprised of our dear friend Davy Jones and another individual. Both pairs were very relaxed, and they showed us their flukes a few times. In the area we could spot at least 5 minke whales. It was a great tour.

13:00 - Success again! Things started differently this time. Davy Jones and the other whales we had found earlier, close to port, were not there now. We sailed in a wide circle for some time, and eventually we spotted the distinctive blows of humpback whales some distance to the South. We drove that way and bingo! There were 2 individuals, swimming peacefully in a straight line. They gave us several fluke dives, as they dove very regularly, every 6 minutes. Also, as we sailed we saw at least 4 minke whales and a small pod of harbour porpoises, around 5 individuals.
