Whale Watching-August 2008





Our last trip for the summer took us to Brier Island for a day of whale watching. It was amazing to be so close to these gentle humpbacks. We managed to see nine different whales, including two cow/calf pairs, many gannets and porposises. I highly recommend this tour in the Bay of Fundy. The tour operators were terrific - we used Brier Island Whale and Seabird Tours (brierislandwhales.blogspot.com) and we were not disappointed. Shelly was a wonderful guide who provided lots of information about the whales who frequent the Bay- Luna, Sickle, Sockeye, to name a few.

Breaching for us!


It was a great way to cap off the summer!
