WHALE WATCH PHOTOS

We had a whale of a time on Saturday afternoon. The crew identified 23 unique Humpback Whales that were feeding during our 3-hour excursion. These whales were displaying a variety of behavior for us, feeding, breaching, and tail slapping. It was quite a magnificent showing by some of the largest mammals on earth.

Share your photos! We'd love to see your favorite shots from the excursion. To access and share your photos and videos, use this link to a shared Google Drive folder. Or, feel free to browse and download images from others.

And for anyone wondering what whale breath smells like, those of us close enough to the railing to experience it first hand can tell you that some things are better left to the imagination...
