It was a summer of the Minke Whale, and we didn’t mind it! These are the smallest species of whale we see off of Newport, but they are consistently the FRIENDLIEST. And we’re still seeing them every week including yesterday. It’s a combination of factors that are believed to attract Minke Whales to our Zodiacs, but the primary reasons are: 1. clear, blue water that allows these whales to see the hull shape and bubbles from the engine, 2. the small size of the boat which is similar to the size of

We’ve been seeing lots of Minke whales here lately. You can see the size and rad coloration of these animals in this footage from April. Minke whales can grow up to 33 feet in length and weigh up to 11 tons making them the smallest of the several various baleen whales we see here.🐳Book now using link in bio🎉#whalewatching #whale #orcas #minke #dolphins #jump #fly #low #news #media #lunges #wildlife #montereycalifornia #coast #cali #sun #fun | Oceanic Expeditions

Hello 👋🏻 little Minke Whale 🐳 We spotted this adorable Minke Whale off the coast of Oceanside. The minke whale is one of the smallest baleen whales, typically reaching lengths of 23 to 32 feet. Known for their streamlined bodies and distinctive pointed snouts, they are found in oceans worldwide. Minke whales feed primarily on small fish and krill, using their baleen plates to filter food from the water. They are generally solitary or found in small groups. #minkewhale #oceanside #oside #whale

We had incredible looks at a friendly minke whale today! It was surfing the westerly swell then approached our vessel multiple times and even snuck underneath our bow 🏄🏻‍♂️ Minke whales are typically quite elusive. Often popping up for a quick breath only to disappear into the abyss. Todays minke was quite the opposite! Paired with an estimated SIX THOUSAND dolphins, we enjoyed a beautiful day in the channel 🙌🏻Thanks crew for another awesome day! #Minke #MinkeWhale #photography #marinelifeph
