3RD OCTOBER – WHALES LEAP FOR JOY

Today we had 2 – 3 Humpback Whales that wouldn’t stop breaching and tail slapping!! One of the whales was laying on its back and doing a back stroke like swim, it was amazing
The sea conditions were a little choppy due to the NE wind but everyone had a blast.

6TH OCTOBER 2015 – HAPPY HUMPBACKS ON THE COFFS COAST!

Today’s whale watch was nothing short of amazing. Not long after leaving the harbour, we discovered our first pod of Humpbacks, breaching under the morning sun. Giving in to temptation, we decided to head south to Sawtell where we could see 3 pods of whales breaching and tail slapping!

7TH OCTOBER 2015 – BABY HUMPBACK JUMPING FOR JOY!

What a day to go whale watching!  We spent our morning watching a mum and calf playing in the shallows off the Coffs Harbour Coast. Under the watchful eye of mum, this little guy jumped 50 or 60 times!

15TH OCTOBER 2015 – MOTHER AND CALF HUMPBACKS OF THE COFFS COAST

The Heavens nearly opened up to the north during our 11am Whale Watch today so we decided to head south towards the Sawtell Headland and keep clear.
We had a beautiful Mother and Calf Humpback Whale enjoy the sun on the way and we were welcomed by a huge Humpback Whale Breaching!! This whale was big and you could hear the slap as it hit the water after its breach, truly amazing morning on the water with these magical mammals.
