Coolangatta/Tweed Heads Whale Watching Thursday 28th August 08
A pleasant morning out on the Gold Coast waterways, a little overcast and bit cool today. We enjoyed two very relaxed humpback whales this morning, they rolled over, pectoral fin slapped, spy hopped from a distance, and just happily swam along slowly heading south.
We also met up with a single humpback, breaching and tail lobbing, this whale had a black underbelly, we’ve only seen a few of these, they are quiet unique, he was on his way north!
Then a few more out further, in a hurry heading south. We left these whales and headed back in towards Coolangatta and didn’t come across another whale, lucky though we did have beautiful whales for the first half of the morning – everyone was very happy and excited.
So far this season, 58 trips and 100% success in seeing whales !! It can’t get any better – oh yes it can – the calves are on their way !!
This has been Carol – The Whale Women until tomorrow!!
