16 August 2025 This is a Whale Mugging!

With some fine weather and lovely sea conditions, we finally got out again for 3 great Whale Watching trips today. All 3 had Humpback Whales come right up to the boat for a good look at us.

This is what is referred to as a “Whale Mugging”. The 9.00am trip was the closest and the pics just shows the edge of our boat with the young Whale lifting his tail to us, almost touching us.

The next few weeks will hopefully see a lot of these “Muggings”, a great time to really see them up close. This also indicates the start of our Whale Swim season.
