Like swimming with a whale ...
This is serious experience ... Expensive, far away, a very long time to go.
In end - incredibly. For all of you who tell me.
This is probably the strongest impression in 30 years.
It is important what is the goal set. Options mass, from whale whatching from a boat, when first in the distance someone sees a fountain or splash, shouting to everyone, "Blow!!!"and the boat turns there and here you see too. The anticipation is overwhelming. You theoretically know that they're huge and powerful and curious. Those for whom you have 3 days flew, barely slept and now in a wetsuit sitting on the boat waiting for a miracle. Tensely peering into the boundless blue, where at any moment the horizon can break through the fountain of spray, and you realize that IT is he who breathes there.

Often whales are interested in a boat and swim up to look at it. Then you can see their shadows and huge silhouettes - very close. My friends had an incredible experience on the first day, when several young whales became so interested in the boat that they literally looked overboard, leaning out of the water almost half. It's amazing how they do it. Generally humpback whales are extremely playful and high guys. Love to spin, fool around, play. Reference: only 3 powerful flick of the tail and he jumps over the water, and with a deafening splash and splashes flopping back. It is easy to find videos where 15 meter adult whales jump out entirely.
You look at it from the side, you dream of a personal meeting, and the hands themselves pull fins. You're in! He swam away. And so it may take a day or two. No guarantees were given. Wildlife is unpredictable. Or maybe you're lucky and kitenok, who was born a couple of months (weeks) ago became interested in people. And his mom doesn't mind. Then they together, or the kid one, can swim to take a look at the people who jumped from the boat. Near and far, as lucky. Timidly at first, then bolder and bolder, and if all goes well, a miracle will happen. Mom will hang at a depth of 20-30m NAP, about 15 minutes,
allowing the baby to frolic with people. And here, a few quintals of enthusiasm and curiosity in 5 meters of energy and fun, already rushing at you! Right in the forehead! First you get lost, you get shy with excitement. Some are afraid of a collision, but it does not happen. Kitenok at the last moment a little change of direction - he wants to see everything closer. Its large eye and lively, absolutely conscious look that it makes my skin crawl. HE LOOKS AT ME. Again and again. Peepers process is not limited. At the same time he shows himself. Spinning, slapping his tail, waving his fins, flips. That's all
these somersaults newborn babies get up right among floating people. There are rules. Do not come closer than 5 metres, not diving after him, not to touch. BUT. Dodging the raging kitten useless. If he wants to swim, you can't keep your distance, even if you want to. Many are afraid to get fin or tail in the heat of the game. Received all and were happy. Surprisingly, but the kid playing perfectly calculates the strength and trajectory. He doesn't want to hurt anyone. Maybe touch it. And these are moments of happiness. Still happiness, when you already help and"got used to it." And the whale dives to you, and you dive with him, and you swim TOGETHER. ENJOYING EACH OTHER 100%. THE HERE AND NOW. These seconds are priceless. When they're behind you, you can't even tell how long it's been. It was a moment of eternity. Truths. Complete, unlimited buzz that you came here.
