Whale of a Time, August 27, 2013.

We have been seeing humpback whales since we hit the coast way back at Cape Leveque, north of Broome. They are usually a fair way out, and it’s hard to catch a good photo. But this evening, we were all relaxing round camp at Red Bluff when Ferg spotted a whale close to shore.

Humpback heaven!

Humpback heaven!


Campers appeared from their shelters and shacks and posh tents up and down the beach. This was a rare treat! This next photo shows how close to shore he was.

He frolicked all down the beach and out to the surf break at the point, into the sun. But we loved to watch while we could.
