Port Stephens has turned on a magnificent day for whale watching off shore, with nice and calm seas and brilliant blue skies.
Our passengers on the morning cruise have located two pods of Humpback Whales, one pod consisting of two whales and the other a single whale. Both pods were swimming in a southerly direction near to Boondelbah Island, with the whales approaching quite close to the vessel at times. We also spotted lots of splashing from a fair distance with another pod tail lobbing further off shore.
