Even though it was rainy, windy and foggy today for the morning trip we still had an excellent day of whale watching. We started off the day with two single humpback whales, getting a nice glance at both of their dorsal fins. We then moved on to an active humpback calf that was rolling on [...]

Today was a lovely day off shore. In the morning we watched Hancock who has been hanging around the area lately. She gave us some great looks and we then watched a trio of female humpbacks, Cajun, Jabiru, and Perseid. Cajun often associated with the same particular individuals, Jabiru and Perseid being two of them, [...]

On today’s morning whale watch we got to pass by a few minke whales within an hour of heading out! We started out the trip by spending some time with a fin back whale. This whale gave us some cool looks at the largest baleen whale in the Gulf of Maine.

Lots of whales on the bank today, they were just a little spread out! In the morning we had 4 humpbacks in the area. The first one we spent time with was Farfalle. Farfalle was born in 2013 and just received a name, getting his or her unique name from a butterfly shaped marking on [...]

It was a very busy day out on the North West corner of Stellwagen Bank. On our first trip we started off the day with a Finback whale. We could easily see the right side of its lower jaw appearing to glow fluorescent green underneath the surface of the water. It was a beautiful sight. [...]
