How I did it: I tagged along with a friend who booked a whale watching tour with the "prince of whales" company in Victoria, BC. at six we showed up at the dock and we loaded into a boat with the rest of the tour, for the next three hours we were witnesses to orca whales in their natural habitat. It was breath takingly amazing! Like free willie gone wild! XD twas intense how close you could get to the whales.The boat ride was worth it too - a small hov… Read how I did it…
How I did it: You don't have to go crazy far away to see a variety of whales. For me I have seen them on a couple different occasions. Quebec actually has one of the most diverse sea populations on the Earth! Including 13 species of large sea animals. We where able to see a very large pod of adorable little Belugas, They are endangered and 1000 of them take up residence in the St. Lawrence. They Where stuning!There was a slight Moby Dick mome… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I went in the Boston Harbor which was ok but then I went kayaking while in Namibia and lucked out. There were dolphins and seals and then this Southern Right Whale came our way. It was amazing. Read how I did it…

How I did it: When I went home last winter, mum wanted to go, so she booked and organised everything. We didn't see any breaching, but we got to see a few few babies, and a few good tail flicks.It was a little frustrating because they didn't have any radar gear, so we just cruised around looking for them. No huge pods either. And when we did see one, everyone crammed over to one side of the boat. The pushing and shoving was not so cool.But they're so h… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I had been planning this with my mum for a few months and because I love animals so much and it is such an amazing journey the mothers and their calves endure to travel to warmer waters to calve, I really wanted to go and see them up close.Because I don't live far from where they come into rest before heading up further to warmer water it only took 3 hours drive to get to Harvey Bay, just north of Brisbane Queensland. You can also see the… Read how I did it…

We were snorkeling, and these marvelous creatures were all around. If you hung quietly in the water, you could hear their calls permeate everything.
Smartest snail coffee, vet and lookout for waterfowl. Great day planned.
We went to Cape Cod for a long weekend and decided to try whale watching. I have a fear of water I cant touch the bottom. But I heard this experience was too amazing to miss. So we went.
We only saw 5, but one swam under the boat and when he came up, his tail came up at the very end of the boat. We were all so stunned I dont think any of us got pictures. His tail fanned at the back of the boat and I thought I was going to cry. It was truly one of the most amazing things that I ever had a chance to experience. They are so large, but so graceful, so gentle. To know that we share the earth with such creatures makes you do everything you can to try to protect it. They could have swam away, but they swam right to our boat and put on the most magnificant show I have ever seen.

I missed out on the opportunity to do this twice this last year, also once as a child. If my school does any trips to it next year I’ll go.
soulguru is still busy planning the wedding
I was in South Africa 5 years ago and spent many an hour watching whales breach in the ocean from my friends garden. It was just beautiful.It was such a majestice and spiritual sight to have seen I’ve never forgotten the feeling it left me with. I vowed I’d return to S.A one day to Cape Town ( one place I haven’t seen) and travel to Hermanus Bay. This is where the whales travel to to give birth to their calves. My brother lives in S.A now so think I will tie this in on one of my visits.

I have family in both Northern and Southern CA and I visit quite frequently so I just need to make the time to go out on a whale watching boat ride.

My husband and I are planning a trip to Maui next January so that we can go whale watching. We were there in September for our honeymoon, but the whales weren’t! We did see dolphins, but I would love to see whales! We are going to book a tour or two with The Pacific Whale Foundation. We went snorkeling with them to see sea turtles and had a fantastic time.
disenchanted184 is working on being more self-confident
This goal might be accomplished in a couple of months because I’m going on a cruise in the Caribbean over March Break. We visit 7 different islands and we pick excursions to do on each one, and on one island whale watching is an option. So far my family seems to be on board with doing that!

Maggie asks,
“Is winter whale watching in Seattle any good? I see that the boats go out until December but I don't know if it starts to get sucky this time of year.”
