Nearly 1000 whales!

Wed, 05 Oct 2016

By Eco Ranger Corey

Nearly 1000 whales sighted on the cruises!

For today's whale watching cruise, we spotted 18 Humpback whales, only 4 short of reaching 1000 whales for 2016! It is amazing to see so many whales migrating along the east coast of Australia, after nearly being completely exploited during the whaling times in the 50's and 60's. This seasons total number of sightings will be the most Tangalooma has ever had. Today also consisted of around 20 Inshore Bottlenose dolphins and a dugong!
