Whale Watching has been awesome this last month , in spite of the windy days in-between we’ve had lovely full wind still days.
This last month has seen an abundance of mother and calf pairs, yesterday again Danie got a call from the NSRI in RBAY telling him they’d had a report of a boat that capsized in this area and he rushed down to the beach - it turned out to be a whale that was ‘’sailing’’ –
Please keep on sending the clientele, as now is the actual peak ‘’baby’’ season –
We always think July and August is ‘’peak’’ season, but although it’s then peak ‘’customer’’ season, the peak mother/calf whale season is September, October, November.
Please ask clientele to bring additional sun block lotion, as the days are getting really hot out on the boat.
HIPPO / CROC tours depart daily at 10h00, 12h00, 14h00 and 16h00, and again our sightings especially with the Hippo groups and bird watching also excellent. On this tour clients should ensure to bring along a camera, as there is photo opportunities aplenty!
Keep in touch if you have any questions – enjoy the rugby and enjoy the weekend!

I’m sitting in front of the computer going through a couple of the whale photographs that we took over the season, some of the best of the best, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawesome, I soooo much want to forward this entire file to you all, but like Achmed, says – you kille me dead when I do thwat ( he he ) , as it will take hours to download, however I can’t help myself being proud of the first ever flying fish we were able to photograph whilst whale watching, and herewith on attachment then THE little fishy.
Whilst I’ve got your attention – Thursday and Friday ( tomorrow ) we’re going to be Blessed in abundance with lots of heavy rain so that our river can flow again and our taps can be full again – so for the next two days possibility of cancellations on ocean activities, but from Saturday onwards we’ll be back full steam.

A dead Humpback
‘’Baby’’ Whale washed up on the beach just north of
Richardsbay a week ago –
EKZN Wilfdlife official Frans Mthembu from
Richardsbay phoned Danie to drive to the site to identify this whale, on first
sight he saw that it was a newborn Humpback male calf, this years’
offspring, according to measurements not more than 4-5 weeks old. Skin samples
were taken by the Advantage Whale Crew and will be sent to scientist Mike Meyer
at Marine and Coastal Management in Cape
Town for further analysis of what could have caused
it’s death.

Whatever you do from the moment you meet at the office, getting to the
beach, onto the
boat, the 2 hours on the boat…- you are on camera - we make a
personalized video and you can purchase this dvd from the WHALE OFFICE
about an hour after your return from the ocean - we also add extra good
footage from other trips, as
well as Hippo & Croc footage as most people also do the Hippo Croc
Boat Cruise with us .
