We have had some great sightings over the past few weeks including humpbacks, fin whales and minkes as well as seals, porpoise, eagles and even an incredible basking shark sighting!
Let’s look at some images and videos from the past 2 weeks.
Beautiful minke whales, we have had many trips with multiple minkes in the Islands and out off Bliss and Blacks
Humpbacks are always a passengers favourite and I understand! We had a few trips with some incredible lunge feeding from Hashtag

We have started to see a few finbacks in the past few days which is simply amazing, they are the largest species of whale that visits the Bay of Fundy on a regular basis
