WHALE WATCHING
Between July and early November, humpback whales return to the calm warm waters in Polynesia to mate or give birth. For a heart warming 20 minutes we documented a loving mother doting on her playful baby. It seemed the mother was encouraging her calf to nurse, but the curious little whale was more interested in exploring… But not too far from mom’s watchful eyes. During a peaceful afternoon in the ocean, the little family relished each other’s company with gentle nudging, body rubbing and affection.
SWIMMING WITH WHALES IN TAHITI AND MOOREA
We just had to try swimming in the ocean with humpback whales. It’s said to be one of the most beautiful underwater observations in the world. Swimming near whales is regulated in Moorea and requires some patience. Despite all the waiting and bobbing around, there’s boat loads of anticipation and excitement. If the opportunity arrives, swimmers are cautioned to slip softly into the water, swim far from the boat out into the open abyss and cross your fingers. The law here specifies boats may not approach closer than 100 meters to whales…150 if it’s a mom and calf. Our first two attempts there were no whales in sight yet the thunderous volume of their song shook your chest. It was beautiful and eerie. During our third attempt, storm clouds and a low sun left little light to film under water as our tour guide spotted 2 giants in the depths below. Though It was too dark to capture quality footage, the memory of this incredible experience is still vibrant.
MOOREA
Moorea is Tahiti’s little sister island 15 kilometers or so from Tahiti. “Mo’o Rea” Translates to lizard - yellow.” You can see the yellow geckoes all over the island clinging to walls and what not.
