Whale watching tour with O'Briens tours, in one of their Zodiac boats. Two humpback whales circled our boat for about 20 minutes, coming close enough to touch at one point. Boat engine turned off, the whales were watching us.

I'm a Newfie, whales are majestic and smart, when they put on a show its mind blowing and scary at times, but beautiful.

Newfie whales are a different breed bys. Were all friendly down here. I can't believe people would comment about whale abuse. The whales want us to know them thats why they come to the boats. This is a great vid!

The guy going 'here here here' was the boat captain, or "Skipper" as he was known. I think it even said that on his hat :) As for possible 'whale abuse' as a few have posted - well I realise that rules vary and that in BC, for example, this would not be allowed. But on this occasion the whales very definitely came to the boat, not the reverse. The were around for 20+ minutes overall. We have done this trip many times and never been anything like this close.

@sharecroppermike Generally it's the whales that come to you not the other way around (although not always the case). So anyways as far as i know your allowed to touch them, besides i can't see why not

@sharecroppermike Good point...that they come to you. I guess I was just wondering if it might be abusive to go after whales and disturb them....although I know it's a wonderful tourist attraction. These mighty animals are amazing. But when I saw how close....wow...could they have flipped the zodiak?? I've seen recently a shark that landed in a boat and a whale that bumped a boat...so ya never know. I assume yu carry special insurance? But it's an amazing video and your guests are lucky!!!!

I believe whales should be fearful of humans.

I've been that close a few times. It's quite a feeling but just like in most videos, the people screaming mess it up.

Could the whale have flipped the boat?? Just wondering how close we are allowed to get to whales?

@johncritch6812 2 жыл бұрын

I live in Newfoundland and have heard of that happening.

@christineyetman640 Жыл бұрын

as close as they want to come to you..the men who take out these charters have been doing this a long time and are familiar with the whales actions..you just stop when you find them and if they want to come up to your boat they will

@theicedman it is illegal to touch whales, feed them or even to approach them this close deliberately. what you are seeing in this video is the equivalent to a video of someone interacting with a wild bear. why not is simple: 9/10 of these encounters might go well, then a boat is capsized. there are also cases of whales getting too friendly with boats and the result was an injured or dead whale.
