Great weather conditions for whale watching today and they turned a show on for us. The MV Osprey morning cruise spotted a young adult off Fingal Lighthouse participating in some half-hearted breaches and swimming around in circles. It seemed the juvenile was lost and started heading towards NZ then surprising the passengers with a massive breach. On the return trip, a pair of large adults were discovered and in the distance ten to fifteen whales.
As usual, Dolphins were north of Nelson Head as the boat made it’s way to the Marina with four Albatross joining from the sky.
