The crew on the Hinchinbrook Explorer have described their experience during the morning whale watch cruise as the Humpback Whales ‘cuddling the boat’ The whales spent 45 minutes to an hour circling the boat. They were extremely inquisitive, eying the side of the vessel, diving under and checking out beneath the surface of the water. Even rolling about in the water eying off the passenger watching from above. Such an amazing encounter!
