North Atlantic Right Whales!!

Hi there folks! Just wanted to give you a quick update on what we have been seeing here at Island Quest. Over the past week wildlife sightings have been PHENOMENAL! The critically endangered North Atlantic Right Whales have moved in from offshore and we have had some amazing sightings with them, as well as Humpbacks, Finbacks AND Minkes! That's all four species of whale that we have here in the Bay of Fundy! Not only have the whale sightings been great but on our 2pm departure we also sighted a thresher shark! AWESOME! Here are some photos taken by our amazing local tour guide, Andrew!
