@hawaiiantheoceandiary: Some whale encounters you watch. Others feel like the whale chooses you. 🐋💙 This incredible humpback circled our boat, stayed beneath the catamaran enjoying the shade, then slowly moved around us — pausing, rolling sideways and deliberately turning its eye towards us. Eye contact with a humpback whale. Not for a second. Again and again. You can book a whale-watching trip, but you can’t book a moment like this. The whale decides whether it wants to stay, investigate and interact — and this one clearly wasn’t in a hurry to leave. One of those mesmerising encounters that will stay with us for a very long time. On board @bluedolphintour - Hervey Bay. 🐋🌊 #HerveyBay #WhaleWatching #HumpbackWhale #VisitFraserCoast #Queensland
