………….who said the whales were over for 2011????!!!
Another beautiful day cruising off the Sunshine Coast in very calm and clear conditions was enjoyed by the small group of passengers today. The whales have certainly slowed right down with most of our winter visitors now having headed down south for a much deserved feed.
We found a mother / calf / escort about five miles off Point Cartwright and enjoyed their company for most of the morning. Had a couple of close encounters as the calf tried to come over and say g’day but mum kept him on track and ushered him underway again. We reckon she’d decided it was time to get back down with the rest of the group and didn’t want to stop and play.
