March of the Humpbacks

Monday, June 28th, 2010

Whale Watch news

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

This third week of June, we have enjoyed wonderful displays by Humpbacks.  Sad to say for our land-based watchers, the whales are still staying way, way out beyond the islands marking the Sound ……   but….. we are seeing them every day.  As if to use their saved energy, the whales are often breaching and tail-slap caressing.

Every day too….hundreds of dolphins just as intent on playing with the whales, and the whales…they’re still curious about us and our boat, generally cruising by quite close ….. a mark of the human’s attractiveness, as the Humpbacks have to interrupt their honeymoon smooching to check us out!

‘Sail-A-Way’ is having to stay out on a long trip to locate these distant creatures, so we are taking extra complimentary hot food…   Halal for our Muslim guests; Pork free for the Jewish community; vegetarian for the vegetarians and pies, sausage rolls, scones and tea and coffee a plenty for all.

Thanks for this news from Albany Whale Tours;
