The southern migration is in full swing with mothers and their calves making the most of the beautiful conditions out on the humpback highway. We also had a short visit from a few Indo-Pacific Bottlenose dolphins and for our passengers enjoying our onshore Dolphin Discovery Cruise, we had a humpback come right inside the heads in the bay. What a cruise for those passengers!

Whales were reported everywhere, and breaching everywhere! With one special calf really enjoying their newfound skill and repeatedly breaching over and over and over, with our crew saying around 60 times this little one breached! Mum made two surprise appearances but the disturbance she made in the water was huge and captured beautifully in these photos.
