That is stunning, Steuermann. I actually got very close to a big bull humpback in Niue a fews years ago. That was one of the most amazing experiences. I was surprised how white their under carriage is and how friendly their eyes are (yeah, I was THAT close). Thanks for sharing this.

OH....WOW! That is an amazing video. I've been close to humpbacks but from a Zodiac, not in the water. Now I want to swim with them!

We're hoping to see them in Tikehau or Manihi next week. Got an e-mail back from Tikehau last week and they are still there, and the hammerheads are arriving. Woo-Hoo!

You can swim with the whales in the Austral's calving grounds. Yves organized an expedition to them a few years back. I'd probably kill someone to be able to do it!
