Yesterday’s whales were putting on an absolute show! 🐋💦

Breaches, head lunges, tail throws, pec slaps… there was action in every direction and barely a moment to put the camera down! 📸

September is certainly delivering some spectacular encounters here in Hervey Bay, and days like this remind us just how special it is to have these incredible humpbacks spending time in our sheltered waters. 💙

Who’s ready to see what they get up to today? 👀🐋

Who said whale swims were over for September? 👀🐋💦

September in means our beautiful mothers and calves are filling the Bay… but in between watching these special little families, we found a moment to swim with these beauties. 💙

The right whales. The right conditions. The right moment.

And just like that… we were sharing the water with humpbacks. ✨🐋

Every swim is completely on their terms, and that’s what makes encounters like this so incredibly special.

September just keeps surprising us. 💙

🐋 Watch. Learn. Repeat… and keep watching until the end to see Mum show us how it’s REALLY done! 💥🐋

September has arrived, and Hervey Bay is becoming a nursery for the next generation of humpbacks.

These incredible moments show a mother demonstrating behaviours to her calf — and a very enthusiastic little student giving them a go. Every breach and pec wave is part of their time together in the sheltered waters of the Bay before the long journey south.

And while the calves are busy learning, the energy elsewhere is building too, with large males arriving and courting females.

Mothers teaching. Calves learning. Males competing.

September is a VERY special time to be on the water. 💙🐋 You don’t want to miss this action.

When one encounter just isn’t enough… 🐋💙

This incredible humpback muggged us on BOTH trips today — and this afternoon, we got a whole new perspective from beneath the surface. 🤯

Circling the boat, cruising right underneath us and coming back again and again… this whale clearly wasn’t finished saying hello. 👋🐋

And just LOOK at this underwater footage from our afternoon tour! 😍
