We’re all extremely greatful for the
rain ! …..But yes , it does have an effect on the whale
watching trips , however I’m not grumbling , as the rain at
this stage is more important ….!
Danie went out on Sunday morning at 09h00
and saw an enormous amount of Humpback whales , he got about 6-7
pods of Humpback Whales which consisted of about 4-6 Humpback
Whales per pod.

Bien saw only 4 Humpback Whales on the

good performance ….
Just a little ‘’
halloooooooooooooooo there …………
WHALE WATCHERS have been getting sopping
wet lately , with the sea being a wee bit rough and tough (sic) and
spray into everybodys’ faces !...............
Danie and Co-Crew will obviously tell you
(((your clientele))) all about whale behaviour whilst out at sea ,
but for those of us that’s demoted to office duty (ha ha )
and skippering the Hippo/Croc boat and not getting on the ocean
every day ------some educationals on whales and dolphins

BLESSED SUNDAY morning to you all !
WHALE UPDATE :::: It’s Spring tides at the moment and then
for 2 days before and 2 days after Spring tide we can’t get
over the sandbanks into the ocean, so we can only get the tours
done that are booked over high tide ….
Danie took Berno and Bien’s boats through the surf this
morning, they both saw between 11 – 14 Humpback Whales, a
school of about 40 Common Dolphins and approximately 60 Bottlenose
Dolphins.
"….in an attempt to understand the extremely different world
of whales and dolphins, we need to reconsider almost all of our
parameters about the world in which we live. Consider for instance
that whales and dolphins live in a world nearly void of gravity
.That the air they breathe is not continually available to them ,
and that they repeatedly swim to the surface to take a breath
…."
The daily personalized dvd’s that get made about the whale
watching trips can be viewed on the big screen at The Whale Office

Accommodation in St Lucia seems to be
fully booked this longweekend of the 24th of September 2007 .
If anybody still has any opening , empty
rooms or flats , please let us know as we have walk-ins into the
office all the time enquiring about the accommodation
availability.
The Hippo and Croc Boat Tours still have
empty seats , and there is also still place on the Whale Watching
trips .
This time of the year is just our windy
season , we have the prevailing north winds blowing daily , and
have to be able to get out early to do the whale trips , as later
throughout the day the wind just gets too strong .
