Swimming with mother and calf Humpback whales

    Quit posting all this cool shit George, you're making us (me) jealous. That had to be an amazing experience, congrats and thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Nate, so dont post the video of me swimming with the big Marlin then? ;)
    I hate to watch it actually as I just see a missed rare opportunity :)

    That's pretty rad George. Are there instances where the mother doesn't want the diver to get close….and lets the diver know it? Shit. I wouldn't swim up to a whale and her baby. Unreal Dude.

    Klabautermann thanks :)
    Hank hell yeah the mother lets you know with body posture and her actions... I would not bother her if I thought it would bother her... she came to me ;)

    Awesome vid nature boy :)


    Do they often come so close to shore?


    On the Atlantic side of the island they do come that close often but on the calm Caribbean side almost never. Was a rare treat.
    Trying to get up the balls to swim with sperms next season, but something about a giant apex predator and I fooling around makes me a 'TAD' hesitant <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">
