October 9, 2008: 13 HUMPBACK WHALES (including 2 mother and calf pairs)

Even as our whale watch season reaches its end (we will be running trips for just a few more weeks) the number of whales on Stellwagen Bank has not diminished. Often times at this late point in the season we see a gradual dwindling of the number of whales as many whales begin their migration south towards their breeding grounds. This year, however, is different. For example today (October 9th) we saw at least 12 HUMPBACK WHALES just 13 miles outside Gloucester Harbor.PLEASE follow the link below to read complete report of this trip. You will be AMAZED by the pictures......
