Daily Diary – August 7 2024

The weather today was absolutely perfect—no wind, calm waters, and a spectacular sun shining down on us. With conditions like these, we knew it was going to be a great day, and nothing could go wrong.

But the highlight of the day was, without a doubt, the encounter with two impressive humpback whales. These majestic creatures put on quite a show for us. One of them even treated us to a spectacular tail slap, where it repeatedly struck the water’s surface with its powerful tail. This behavior can be a form of communication, a way to startle prey, or perhaps even a playful display of strength and energy.
