Friendly Humpback Whales! | Santa Barbara Whale Watch

Friendly whales for us today 🐋!
Two adult humpback whales showed us their curious side as they turned to us with an inquisitive eye. They sure seemed to enjoy our 2023 Axopar, almost as much as our passengers!
Moments like this are rare and only happen on the whale's terms. They exemplify the incredible wonder our oceans possess and are the reason why we love exploring our backyard, the stunning Santa Barbara channel 🌊

Thank you for showing videos and photos of these majestic beautiful creatures. I feel like they are trying to tell us something.

Humpback whales are so gracious and protective of other species against orcas they will allow you to stroke them
