Whale Watching Moonshadow TQC Cruises Port Stephens Lee Matthews

Its a beautiful sunny day in Port Stephens today and our morning cruisers got to spend some time with a mother and her very newborn calf.  Mum was showing off her calf to our passengers as she lifted it to the surface.  They were happy just to gently glide through the ocean and enjoy the calm seas.  Our acrobatic seals were up to their usual antics at Cabbage Tree Island with another special sighting of a mother and baby seal sunning themselves on the rocks and many playing and swimming.  We also came across a small pod of Bottlenose Dolphins swimming around the western side of Cabbage Tree Island.
