Whale season in the Tropical North is in full swing with daily humpback sightings. This mother and calf put on a show for passengers and crew aboard dive and snorkel vessel Silverswift as they playfully breached repeatedly out of the water. Watch to see mamma show how it's done! The encounter occurred near Green Island as the vessel was returning from a day at the Outer Reefs. Quicksilver Group Environment and Compliance Manager, and cetacean expert, Phil Coulthard said “Whale season is in full swing and it’s always very exciting to see the humpbacks in our tropical waters. This mother and calf duo have been seen around the same location for several days. We’re seeing the humpbacks almost daily at this time of year. It’s part of their winter migration to our region from the southern oceans of Australia to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.” The sightings are recorded for the GBRMPA’s Eye on the Reef monitoring program. Humpbacks are generally seen at the Great Barrier Reef between the months of June to September with regular sightings near Green Island and at the Outer Reefs, bringing an added bonus for passengers at this time. Thanks to Silverswift marine biologist Teresa Souyet for the great footage.

EXPLORE Alor Diving with Vaiatea Liveaboard Never has 'off the beaten track' been more appropriate than about a liveaboard around Alor. Located between Flores and the Sawoe Sea and comprised of 20 islands, the Alor archipelago is located in the Coral Triangle. It is home to some of the most varied diving you will encounter in a single location - with over 50 dive spots stretching from Alor Island to Pantar Island. Best known for spectacular coral and muck diving, spot multicolor macro critters in volcanic sands, sharks, sea snakes over healthy coral reefs, and anything in between - with scalloped hammerheads on our secret spots. Pantar Strait houses some of the best dive sites in Alor. Blue whales migrate through the area at certain times of the year and can be seen with pilot whales and schools of dolphins. With some powerful currents, the diving in Alor is more suited to experienced divers.
