Lots of fog! ... and how many whales?Who knows!!?? .... because there has been so much fog in late June and early July, it has been very difficult for us to know how many whales are out there!
We have been seeing mostly fin and Minke whales, but yesterday we came across two humpbacks!
When it is foggy like this, the various companies usually spread out our efforts to cover as much different territory as possible. ... and then share the info, increasing the chances for all guests on all boats to see whales. ... WE were the lucky ones to be at the right place at the right time and came across these two large humpbacks.
Our guests (mostly from Ontario and Alberta) were pretty happy! ... and glad they "took the chance, in challenging conditions". ... as one couple put it, ... "we knew it would be worth it just for the ride!" ... BONUS (the whales)!
