Now that's a close-up capture of a humpback blow holes! When a whale surfaces for air, it breathes out and then in. The blowholes are tightly sealed by muscles when submerged to prevent water from entering their lungs. A humpbacks breath is definitely a smell you will never forget 😂

Thanks @randy_straka_photography for the awesome capture!

Oh yeah, we have breachers all over the bay!! It's one of the coolest behaviors you will ever see these massive whales do. There are so many humpbacks in the bay. Come experience the magic 🐋

Absolutely spectacular capture @randy_straka_photography 👏👏👏

Just wanted to share some more photos our photographer @randy_straka_photography captured of the gorgeous orcas we have been seeing recently 🤍

Many of you may have heard about the juvenile orca that beached itself on Carmel River State Beach. We are all so sad about the news. Although attempts were made to rescue the baby orca, it sadly died while being transported to the Long Marine Lab at UC Sants Cruz 😥

At this time, there is no further information on what happened or which pod the beautiful baby orca belonged to. Huge thank you to the Marine Mammal Center for their work in trying to save this precious baby. It's completely heartbreaking 💔 We love the orcas so much!

Humpbacks are going wild in the bay! This humpback breached over 15 times yesterday, spyhopped & did some chin slapping 💙 There is so much humpback activity happening!

Thanks Jeff @jfairbanks_photos for this fabulous capture!

Not sure what has gotten into the humpbacks lately, but they are super friendly with all the boats & we are loving it! It's an amazing time to come out and see these magnificent humpbacks 🐋
