Playful Pilot Whales

Pilot whales were out and about playing today. This active group was jumping, swimming upside down, hitting their tails on the waters surface, and giving the Atlantic Queen and its passengers curious looks. Often found swimming in groups or pods, the group seen today even had a few calves! We also sighted a finback whale which gave an excellent size comparison between the two different species. Its always exciting to see all the different whales that call the ocean and jeffrey's ledge home.
