This morning True Blue Explorer and her passengers spotted a single whale just off South Head this whale was quite active performing breaching, fluke up dives, tail slapps and swimming very close to the vessel.
Another pod of 2 were sighted shortly after just a short distance away. They were slowly swimming along and after the juvenille has stopped breaching we picked these up following them as they showed their tail flukes before gracefully diving.
