The Final Landing - Penguin Island
Before each landing a member of the crew would always go ashore to ensure the landing site was safe and accessible. We were in a zodiac simply cruising around waiting for the word that we could come into the landing site when ..... a large humpback whale surfaced right beside us!! Incredible. It was no more than 20 feet away. It stayed on the surface for about a minute before cocking its flute (tail-fin) in the air and diving down to the murky depths. What an experience. The rest of the landing was great too. Gentoo, Chinstrap, and Adelie penguins everywhere.
