My wife and I absolutely love this video. The joy we both can hear from the excitement from you and your wife’s voice gave us so much happiness. You both had one of the best and most beautiful experiences with kayaking with Humpback Whales. We are planning to take a Expedition trip to Antarctica within the next few years years. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful footage. It’s a blessing.
Thank you for the kind comments. Here is a bit on this trip we took to the Antarctic Peninsula. The company; Aurora Expeditions, (auroraexpeditions.com.au) We have had a few trips with them, all have been great. 21 days in Jan/Feb. 2019 Included: Falkland Islands, South Georgia, Antarctic Peninsula (videos from those places are on my UA-cam channel, that says it all) We were going off the boat kayaking twice a day for tree hrs each time, weather permitted (at S. Georgia & Antarctic P.). For kayaking we were wearing dry suits, you could float on water in them. (We did try it and it worked !) We are very lucky & privileged having so many choices to follow our dreams.
@@RIC45AU Thank you so much for taking the time to respond and thank you for giving us information to help us with planning our expedition to Antarctica. It’s truly a beautiful blessing.
This is one of the most amazing encounters I've seen. Those whales knew you were there and they were being so gentle with you. You might have been in danger if they were unaware of you. I loved it when the tail flukes went either side of the cameraman's bow as he dived under him from foreward. Magical moment.
They would never be unaware of kayakers, or other foreign bodies in/on the water. They have proprioreceptors in the skin that vibrate or resonate when there's anything within a mile. They knew the kayakers were there long before the kayakers did! This is one very special encounter! I've had many like this but never caught it on video! Lucky them!!
Imagine getting yourself alllll the way to Antarctica, into a canoe, frolicking with whales, only to have one person bang on the hull and obnoxiously sing DO DO DODODODO over and over.
Simply beautiful and so amazing. This is my dream, to be up close to whales, and dolphins, but not in Antarctica....I hate cold weather. Thank you, so much, for sharing this with the world.
So graceful. I didn’t realise whales made a sort of growly sound. Imagine being on a sailing ship at night and hearing that sound. Your imagination would run wild. Thanks for posting this 👍
All through these past months of the COVID-19 pandemic, two things that have been great for my mental health are watching whale videos like this one & listening to opera. Thank you for sharing what must have been an unforgettable experience. One of the best videos I’ve seen. Makes me want to do this someday, too. ✨❤️✨

In all the excitement, when a whale comes up for a peek at them, I wonder if they consider that they are not only encountering an alien being, one that has taken a very different evolutionary path, but also that, given their brain and complex behavior, this is very much a two way street. They are being considered as well.
This video gave me goosebumps. They really are the gentle giants of the ocean aren't they. Would you mind sharing during which month you visited Antarctica and had this mind blowing experience?
I’m sorry to hear that your trip was cancelled. Can’t help you much with the weather there, most of the time it’s good. To find it out you have to go there. Any decision you’ll make will be right. Have a great time.
I wish there was a way to do the equivalant of feeding them/ showing nurturing actions towards them patting them etc. but i get the feeling they like us anyway
Hello to you and wife. My wife and I would love to communicate via email with you. We are wanting to go to Antarctica and we absolutely love the videos that you posted from your trip. We are wanting to go to the Falkland Islands and South Georgia. We have no knowledge or experience with this type of expedition and we would like to ask a few questions and some advice ,if you don’t mind helping us. Your videos brought my wife and I so much joy ! We rewatched them so many times. Thank you for sharing them.
My dream. I would literally cry. I had tears in my eyes just watching this. They are my absolute favorite animals and they are absolutely magical. 💙
its a dream
My favorite animal in the world

Thank you for sharing and not adding any music. The wonder of these gentle beasts among nature was enough.
I can't thank you enough for sharing this extraordinary footage with us. What an amazing breathtaking experience!
That was just beautiful and amazing! Thank you for sharing that experience with us!

So special and amazing how gentle and playful they are!!!! Thank you Ros & Richard for sharing this wonderful video.
Yes, we were very lucky!
Thanks so much for sharing that Richard - that day has to go down as one of the ultimate 24 hours in all our lives!!
We were very lucky. Al Baker ( owner of the company) says in all his 50 years he has never seen anything like it!

Such a great video. Thank you for sharing it.!
Absolutely AMAZING!! What a treat! I hope I get to experience this someday. ♥️
they know you want to see them, sweet sounds you made for them
I think so that's why they swimm so gently
Amazing video, kayaking in Antarctica with whales is definitely on my bucket list
If you like this you should put on your bucket list...rafting on Opala River in Kamchatka to be with brown bears catching the salmon.
If I must die let it be among the wonders of gods beauty. This is a sight to see lord I’d be terrified and amazed all in one
Amazing Creatures! We must protect them!

Круто 🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿 Респект вам ребята 🤘🏿❤️😘😘🙏
So amazing,beautiful friendly animal(whale)
Other than the doo doo doo dooing, awesome video.
Note to self never ever go kayaking with an annoyingly vocal older lady who would ruin the experience
I agree you beautiful dahlings lol
oh Thank you for sharing this video~!
What an experience. Very fortunate.

U guys r so lucky dear, wish I were there !!
I’ll be shitting bricks ngl😂
Right
Wow! Amazing!
So majestic...
Just beautiful!!
Very nice. Thank you for sharing
This year, with the absence of 1.4 million tourists in Alaska, scientists are saying the whale population is having a much better time.
Stunning to watch.
It's Amazing !
Love WHALES ❤️🐳🐳❤️😘
Nice Tiderace Kayak !
Omg this animals touching my soul 😪💖💖💖
Just so close u can reach out and touch them! What a thrill!
Wow. How lucky they are
take a shot everytime she says "oh you beautiful darling"
Wow! What a beautiful experience to have. Mesmerising animals ❤
Stunning scenery too
What always amazes me is that when their tailes re-enter the water, they leave hardly a ripple (see @1.56). That is some design by Mother Nature ;-)
"these are humans... they will coo at you for a little closer look... be careful first..."
This video gave me goosebumps. They really are the gentle giants of the ocean aren't they. Would you mind sharing during which month you visited Antarctica and had this mind blowing experience?
Jan/Feb 2019. It’s a beautiful experience kayaking in Antarctica. Highly recommended.
@@RIC45AU thank you. My trip to Antarctica In Feb 2022 just got cancelled so I am wondering if I should go in Nov or Dec of next year :)
I’m sorry to hear that your trip was cancelled. Can’t help you much with the weather there, most of the time it’s good. To find it out you have to go there.
Any decision you’ll make will be right. Have a great time.
Amazing you brave people excellent
I wonder what the arctic is like?
Excellent!
Whales are breath taking beautiful.
But I don't know if I could go up to them in a small boat, in fear they would flip me over
such a wonderful happening for you
Con cá này nó cảm nhận được con người dễ thương quá
Just wondering if they're supposed to keep a certain distance away?? It just seems they are a bit close....
Just wonder💓💓i really impressed
What kind of whales are they?
I think humpbacks
Amazing, can you get in the water with them too?
Just beautiful
Would you tell me where this was?? Or what company was used or cruise?
Antarctic Peninsula, close to Enterprise Island. The company: auroraexpeditions.com.au All the best.
100 yards?
Why they are not attacking in boart...???
I wish there was a way to do the equivalant of feeding them/ showing nurturing actions towards them patting them etc. but i get the feeling they like us anyway
Siete stati molto bravi 😘
Hello to you and wife. My wife and I would love to communicate via email with you. We are wanting to go to Antarctica and we absolutely love the videos that you posted from your trip. We are wanting to go to the Falkland Islands and South Georgia. We have no knowledge or experience with this type of expedition and we would like to ask a few questions and some advice ,if you don’t mind helping us. Your videos brought my wife and I so much joy ! We rewatched them so many times. Thank you for sharing them.
Sou apaixonada por baleias,mas nunca teria coragem de nadar ou se aproximar perto delas😂😍🤩🐳🐳
What gentle giants.
What company did you go with on this trip?
Aurora Expeditions
Thank you! Looks like a wonderful trip.
@@RIC45AU Thank you! Looks wonderful!!
What kind of whales were these?
I been trying find this video for years did y'all notice what's the biggest whale
Whoops- you forgot to thank the whales in your video!
Yes I did forget. Thanks for reminding me. They are so special.
Coolest thing ever
Wow Very Nice
Magnifique great
A man wears a top hat and holds a harpoon.
Bellissimi tutti,anche le balene naturalmente....
Что они делают просто поескаются,или то что обнаружили людей,они так общаются?это касатки или киты?
even if it seems harmless, they should not approach, and leave them alone, they are peaceful animals but it disturbs them all the same
Poderíamos viver em paz com a natureza ela só ia nos agradecer e nos dá tudo de bom.e o oceano as Baleia e os Peixes .
Will someone go to the ocean in antartica on a kayak??? M dying just seeing this.. panic attack
God is Great. Thank you Jesus
If i had 1 M likes i would have given....!!!!
Beautiful whales. Thanks for shushing the annoying lady making the knocking noise. Whales are very sensitive to sounds.
And the newest edition to my bucket list is….
Amazing right🤩
...was she in "Kath & Kim" ???😆
