Christmas came early for us today, as not only were the whales super close but there were six of them! Six humpback whales entertained us throughout the tour. Two were travelling and surfacing together. While the other ones surfaced independently. Two of our regulars were out to play including Iskona and Aretha Frankfin. The two whales surfacing together are new and still don´t have names yet. We have seen them travelling together for at least 4 days now which is super cool. The whales didn´t seem bothered by us at all, they were so relaxed that we were able to shut off our engines and watch as they surfaced super close only meters from the boat! We could see their whole forms swimming right under the waters surface. Just Incredible!
