A bit of the madness on the boat, and proof of how close we were. I spent a lot of time just watching, rather than photographing - these animals are really awesome to watch and be around.

  • I wonder if you could go diving around whales.

    — John Hovell

  • Yes and no. There's lots of diving in the area, and I don't think there are restrictions based on known whale habitats. But, there are also serious rules about approaching or otherwise purposely putting yourself in the way of the whales (although these boats are supposedly okay). So I think you can dive in areas you might see whales, and hope you're lucky?
