Today was the start of the southern migration whale watching cruises that will run to mid November, and what a great start it was. We located a pod of some 6 or so whales just east of Point Perp and they were going off. We were not sure where to look at times as the whales were constantly active with multiple breaching and plenty of tail slapping. It doesnt get better than this. |
