Monday June 21st whale watching report trip info

Here are some photos from today trip we saw whales and dolphins

It turned out to be a beautiful day on the ocean today!  The fog finally lifted and the sun came out. It didn’t take us long to find some dolphins but our main focus was finding whales.  And we found a whale just a few miles north right off the coast of Asbury Park. Danielle, our naturalist, quickly identified the whale and it was no ordinary whale.  This whale made national news last summer because he was entangled in a mess of buoys and fishing line of the coast of Rockaway, NY.   The amount of fishing gear entangled around the whale’s tail weighed over 4,000 lbs and was essentially anchoring the whale in place.  The whale could barely lift its head out of the water to breathe.  It took 3 days and several conservation rescue organizations including the US Coast Guard to free the whale.  The whale suffered lacerations all over its  body and deep lacerations on its tail.  They were hopeful but not sure if the whale was going to survive its injuries.  We are happy to report that this whale did survive and has returned to the feeding grounds at the Jersey Shore!  This whale has an amazing rescue story and it was amazing to see him today!  Come on our whale watching trips and maybe you can see him, too!  We have a large, comfortable boat, air conditioned cabin, and friendly crew.  Great family fun! Book your trip today and make memories to last a lifetime! We are whale watching 7 days a week get tickets now
