Whale Sightings Continue to Grow at the Prom

It’s been another exciting week at Wilsons Prom, with five whale cruises running and a total of 74 whales spotted so far this season. We’re on track for one of our biggest seasons yet.

Feeding and surface activity have been consistent along the coast, often joined by dolphins, seals and seabirds. Saturday’s cruise bringing spectacular action with plenty of breaching.

Tuesday was one of the highlights with our first calf of the season, who mugged the boat alongside mum and her escort. We’re expecting to see plenty more of these curious calves as the season rolls on.

Marred by poor weather at the moment, it won’t be long until we’re back out to see these gentle giants.
