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.

Our short pause- sailing around Koh Chang, Thailand, left me with a taste for more: small islands (not all of them are inhabited) and those that are, are pampered in resorts and good restaurants. Pristine beaches, white and velvety sand, clear water (sometimes tingling), and swings - my weakness. Refreshing massages, fine cuisine, every sunset with a pina colada, breathtaking views, and gentle people, it was refreshing to be part of a flotilla of 5 yachts, Thank You, Dudi - via maris, for this lovely flotilla adventure. #sailingchannel #sailing #shorts
