North Atlantic Right Whales Are Here!

Great news early again this year! The highly endangered North Atlantic Right Whales have appeared in the Bay of Fundy once again and have been sighted since Friday! Whale sightings this season have been phenomenal, an early start with Minke whales in May kicked things off, now with all four species August, September and October are sure to be unbelievable!

Here are some photos that have been taken over this summer!

Cheers!

What A Magnificent Day On The Bay!

WOW...What a day!

We are so excited to let all the folks calling and e-mailing us for updates on our sightings that TODAY WE GOT TO OBSERVE 4 OR 5 FIN WHALES, A MINKE WHALE AND A HUMPBACK WHALE, that showed off a little with a full breach, that's when they jump clear out of the water! We also saw lots and lots of seals, porpoise, an eagle and Northern Gannets.
This is going to be a great season with all the activity on the Bay and the whales showing up early, don't forget to call ahead to book your seats, you won't be disappointed.
We look forward to taking you Cruisin' with the Whales!

Minke Whales... A Great Way To Start The 2010 Season

Today's adventure did not disappoint, with plenty of seals sunning on the rocks, a juvenile bald eagle in its nest and two cooperative Minke Whales, everyone on board was thrilled. Our cruise also included the taste, feel and experience learning quest as part of the 1st annual St. Andrews Seafood Festival. Below is a brief description of our Discover, Experience, Enjoy...The Bay of Fundy Our Way trips we are offering during the festival and the dates and times to join us, seats are filling up so book soon, you won't be disappointed!
