Classed as vulnerable and one of the rarest Penguins in the World, this New Zealand Fiordland Penguin (Tawaki) made himself at home on the rocks at Cape Hauy this week. We’ve spotted him on three occasions. 😊 Crested Penguins are unusual visitors to Tasmania. If you see one, please report the sighting to DPIPWE!

A special treat at the very end of our Seal & Ocean Expedition today - Just a few hundred meters out from the pier in Eaglehawk Neck we saw some acrobatic Bottlenose Dolphins jump followed by a close encounter with three Humpback Whales. 💕

A lot of activity close to shore this week. We had 4 different species of whales over 2 days, including this feeding Southern Right Whale.

We had the best start into the new season we could wish for - Dolphins every day and today we saw the first few Humpback Whales! Love you Tassie 💕 #wildoceantasmania

Hats off to the young climate strikers and everyone involved that bring the urgency of the climate crises to the top of the agenda! #globalclimatestrike #fridaysforfuture

We will run our first tour of the season on Sunday and we’re just as excited as these two to get back out on the water! 🐬🐬 The first Humpback Whales have already been sighted along the coast of the Tasman National Park. About 25,000 Humpback Whales will travel along Australia’s east coast on their way to Antarctica. It’s just a matter of spotting them. 😊 The southern migration is the best time to watch the whales in Tasmania as the mothers with their new born calves swim more slowly and take their time for the long journey South.

Hang time with the locals.. ☺️ Watching and photographing the Seals underwater from our floating platform works a treat, as the animals don’t feel chased, they’re usually super relaxed and come over to us to see what’s going on. This is one of the cheeky puppies from last season. 💕

Just picked up our Whale Poo Sampling Kit. 😁We’re excited to collaborate with researchers from the Institute of Marine and Antarctic Studies and the University of Tasmania this year to hopefully collect some Baleen Whale faeces samples to help with the analysis of the trace metal and organic carbon content which stimulates the growth of phytoplankton. 💕🐋 #morewhalepoolesscowshit
