A few videos of the Blue Whale from yesterday’s tour. 💙🐋

We had to cancel our tours for today and tomorrow due to strong wind. But hopefully we’ll get some more cool wildlife interactions once the weather has settled. Last year, we had a few Orca sightings at this time of the year.. 😊🤞 🤞🤞

Today, we had the amazing opportunity to spend 1.5 hours with a Blue Whale. It’s the largest animal known to have ever existed and can grow up to a length of 30 meters. While the one we saw today wasn’t as big, it was still super impressive to see the big blows and the size of its body. Blue Whales are a real treat for us, as it’s quite rare to see them close to the coast here. Last time we saw a Blue Whale was in 2018.

Thanks to @connorr6 for calling us in when he saw the blows. ☺️ And thanks to @courtney.farrell_ and @lhilll and the rest of the crew for being such troopers today on the wobbly Ocean! It was great to share it with you! 💙🐋

Which way to the beach?
…ahhh that way!

We’re finally getting some warmer days (who would’ve thought after the hail and snow we had only recently). With the warmer water, we’re also seeing lots of interesting little critters in the water like salps and copepods or sea sapphires that really stand out in the water due to their deep blue shine.

Today, we also saw hundreds of bluebottle jellyfish. While fascinating, there were simply too many of them to get in the water with the seals. We still had a beautiful day and saw lots of seals on the rocks at #CapeHauy and further out to see at the #HippolyteRock . ☺️

We still have availability for Monday morning and afternoon, if you’d like to join one of our tours, shoot us a message here on Insta! (Tuesday and Wednesday are looking not so good for tours..)

It’s been pretty quiet on the water this morning, but the whales have really put on a show in the afternoon! 💙🐋

We found two mothers with their energetic calves and we watched them slap their flippers on the surface and breach multiple times.

We still have a few seats available for tomorrow’s trip at 9.30am. Send us a dm tonight, if you’d like to join us and receive a $20 discount. 😊

We had some beautiful days snorkelling with the se

We had some beautiful days snorkelling with the seals in surprisingly clear water - even after all that rain! 🌧 Yesterday, it was still a little rough south of Cape Hauy, so we opted for a cup of tea at the seal colony instead of chasing whales. But today, we had light wind and no swell and found a subadult Humpback Whale that appeared to be feeding down deep, with gulls and terns picking food off the surface.

We still have seats available for the next few days including on the weekend. If you’d like to join one of our tours, you can book online or send us a dm. 😊

We’re expecting the Humpback Whale season to fin

We’re expecting the Humpback Whale season to finish early this year, as they started their migration quite early. We still managed to find whales on all three of our tours today though. 💙🐋 The weather was great which is always good for spotting. We have a couple of wet days forecast but mid week is looking good. 😊 If you’d like to join our tour, you can book online or message us here on Insta. ⛵️
