What an incredible sight last night south of Victoria. Tangerine orange sunset and TWO humpbacks feeding in synchronization…they could have won a gold medal for synchronized swimming! These massive baleen whales were lunging for schooling fish and plankton. We could see their throat pleats stretch as they swallowed large quantities of food. Small fish were leaping out of the water in attempts to escape. Guests had incredible photos of flukes and flippers. It was a 50 mile round-trip and worth the travel time! Who says you have to go all the way to Maui to see the humpbacks!
