Whale done, everyone! 😊
It’s the end of another amazing whale watching season for us. We are grateful to have been part of the migration and meet so many old and new Humpback friends on our excursions. Thanks to all our customers for joining us this year.
Have a fantastic summer! We look forward to seeing you next year!

It was all about humpback mother and calf pairs today. Most of the time they were fairly mellow and chilled with the calves happily rolling about on the surface or laying across mum's body.
However, amidst all that laziness, one pair chose to explode out of the blue as both mother and calf decided it was SHOWTIME.
It started with the mother breaking through the surface with a forward lunge, immediately followed by the calf repeating the action. Mum then changed her behaviour and commenced breaching and the calf joined her.

there she blows!
The traditional hail of the lookout in a whaler (whaling ship) when sighting the spouting water thrown up by a whale surfacing.

And we certainly saw a few today 🐳πŸ₯°

WOW ... some whales have all the fun ... like 70+ breaches in 1hr 29mins sort of fun 😲😍
That is how long we followed 2 whales this morning with 1 of them continuously breaching. In fact, when we left these whales and looked back behind us the whale was still breaching.
We then found several other pods and stuck with 2 juvenile whales who made a bee-line for the boat and mugged the boat for over half-an-hour, swimming around us, underneath us and spy-hopping to get a better look at our guests ... all of whom were in awe of what they were observing.
You gotta love those humpies! 😍πŸ₯³πŸ³πŸ‹

Humpback whale muggings have continued in this great weather we have had over the past few days. Our whale watching guests on the Bay Warrior today where thrilled to get some very up-close-and-personal encounters with a number of humpbacks who swam around, and under, the boat on numerous occassions.
These very close inspections reveal not only fine detail of the species but provide a breathtaking perspective of the enormity of these gentle giants of the oceans.

One of the questions we get asked very frequently, during our whale watching trips, is 'Have you seen Migaloo this year?...

One of the questions we get asked very frequently, during our whale watching trips, is 'Have you seen Migaloo this year?'
Migaloo ("whitefella" in some Aboriginal languages) was an all-white humpback whale that was first sighted on the 28 June 1991 on the Australian east coast near Byron Bay.
However Migaloo has not been seen for approx 3 years. The last time Migaloo was seen, it was reported that his white skin was badly discoloured and he looked very under-nourished. It is now thought that Migaloo is no longer with us πŸ˜ͺ

Good news has recently emerged out of Tonga where a new baby all-white humpback calf has been borne this year. A new borne white female calf has been regularly sighted swimming alonside her mother in the calm, clear blue waters of Vava'u, Tonga.
Video footage and photos are now being circulated around the world featuring the little cutie.
We are not sure whether this calf has yet been officially named.
Here is recent footage captured by Insider Divers ...

It was quite a show today, more like spy-hop central. πŸ₯° Our east coast humpbacks seemed to be watching our guests more than we were watching them as they continued to lift their heads out of water to get a better look at us.
On several occassions today we were mugged. Mugging is a term used when whales deliberately approach boats, moving in very close, around and below the boat and not letting the boat move.
One cheeky humpy went under the boat, between the 2 hulls whilst we were stationery, and blew bubbles. He/she then reared back beside the boat and spy-hopped within arms length of our guests.
It was very hard to leave our playful, and very inquisitive, humpies today ... πŸ₯°πŸ³πŸ˜˜

Highlights of another successful outing this morning with whales near and far. Most humpback whales are moving south, however we are seeing the occassional few humpies still moving north.

The seas have finally calmed down and the huge swell of last week has dropped right off. So we are finally back on the ocean with our east coast humpbacks.
We have witnessed several pods of large humpacks moving together. One pod of approx 12 humpies was travelling north alonside us for the best part of 45mins, whilst a second pod of approx 7 were a little more aggressive ramming each other indicating we were witnessing a heat-run.
Our whale watchers also delighted today as 4 adult humpies came in for a very close inspection of our boat 'The Bay Warrior'. These humpies moved around us and beneath us in very clear water so we could see them clearly as they travelled under our boat from one side to the other.
WOW ... what a day it was. Thank you whale Gods ... πŸ™πŸ³πŸ˜

Great ocean conditions today for our whale watching guests. There are more whales starting to travel south now and we still have some humpbacks continuing their migration north to the tropics.
Not a lot of breaching today however we did have many whales coming in quite close to the boat πŸ₯°πŸ³.
One of todays highlights had to be the sighting of a little baby humpback calf. This cute little calf still had a bent-over dorsal fin which would indicate it is only several days old. At one stage its large adult mother gently nudged her calf across to us, almost as if she was showing off her newborn 😍 but the little guy seemed more interested in practising its newly developed breaching skills πŸ˜‚πŸ₯³ ... what a cutie it was.

What a day!!!
Weather conditions were forecast to be superb for today ... and they were; we were not disappointed.
Mostly all the humpback whales we saw today were southbound ... and they were active; our guests on both our trips were delighted. πŸŽ‰πŸ˜

It was an outstanding day again on the seas with the east coast Aussie humpbacks. We are starting to see some whales already venturing south, whilst the majority are swimming north.
Today we were lucky to be mugged as 4 whales swum around and underneath us and spy hopped several times.
