I am sure that with a little searching, anyone could collect information from the relevant sources here in Australia on whale watching.
By the way, this is the first time that I have read the replies and there were no barbs thrown. Congratulations youlot.

Any day now when the winds are calm you might see them anywhere off our South Shore from St David’s to Gibbs Lighthouse. The main migration comes through the end of March through April and that is when it is most likely that you will see whales off our shores.

Good point and I wonder sometimes if all the attention I bring to the humpbacks in Bermuda may create unnecessary harassment of the whales. I agree that the whale watching industry warrants careful monitoring. Legislation has just been enacted last week to protect humpbacks from any ‘disturbance’ with a $25,000 fine and/or two year imprisonment for those who break this law.

WOW…. I really would like to see them one day. Where(by land only) and when is a good time and place to see them?

Thank you Mr. Stevenson, for all your efforts with the Whale Project. You have already placed Bermuda on the map as a gathering place for whale pods with mothers and whale calves picking up protection before the journey North. Now we learn that this is also a mating ground.

I agree that this is another possible tourism draw, but only if it is well monitored. The last thing the whales need is over-enthusiastic sight-seers who disturb or damage them. Also let’s keep a close watch for those who might want to harvest these endangered giants

This certainly would be something for our tourism product rather then that dolphin prison in Dockyard… Anyone else agree?

Please let me know when you get these whales sightings so that we can log them and build up a database that then paints a more thorough picture of what the humpbacks are doing here. You can email me at spout@logic.bm or phone 77-SPOUT (777-7688). We keep records of all these sightings. Even better, get photographs, particularly of the underside of the fluke (tail) so that we can identify the whale through its unique black and white pigmentation.
