Humpback mother and calf

Dr Ingrid Visser took these shots of a mother and calf humpback whale off the Tutukaka Coast towards the Poor Knights Islands. If you do see whales, dolphins or orca, please call 0800 SEE ORCA and let Ingrid know.

On this shot you can see the cookie cutter shark marks on the calf.

We came up in May (so yes quite a while ago - but better late than never) for a day trip.
Half of us went diving the other ‘just’ snorkeled.
We ALL had the most epic day out!!! We all got home at night feeling like we’d had a holiday! Visibility was amazing, weather was beautiful and the crew was knowledgeable and fun. We got waited on with hot tea and soup, told a bit of history and other interesting facts and of course had the most fantastic time in the water! What we saw was almost unbelievable. We could not have asked for a better day.
THANK YOU!!!

Happy Campers!
