Spy hopping whale turns enjoys 'People watching' off moreton island

Guests on board Australia's largest dedicated whale wacthing boat, the Tangalooma Jet, were thrilled to see couple of Humpback whales displaying spy hops!

A spy hop is when a whale or dolphin lifts its head out of the water to look around at its surroundings, so you feel like they are people watching while you are whale watching! A total of 15 whales were spotted for the whale watching day cruise from Brisbane.
