A few lucky passengers had the chance to see quite a show in the Saguenay St. Lawrence Marine Park! A group of humpback whales had fun around one of our Zodiacs for almost 20 minutes!
The "spyhopping"
"A head slowly emerges perpendicularly and stays that way for a long time: you have become an object of curiosity via the spy on the surface ("spyhopping"). Sometimes a whale will instead swim slowly around a boat, passing back and forth under the hull, while turning to the side to take a look at the surface. "
