左手曦月右手清阳On domestic travel websites, only this whale watching company was found in the Victoria area. In fact, I went to Victoria to find a large number of whale watching companies along the docks of the city hall for many years. Of course, everyone's route is similar. Five Star is not the cheapest. Call to book and ask if there is a discount, you can get a 20% discount (no if you don't ask). 20% discount is cheaper than all agents (TripAdvisor, etc.). Two big and one small are $293 (after discount). After booking, you will receive a confirmation email to inform you of the precautions and collection time. It is roughly half an hour in advance to the five-star whale watching store next to the Miniature World ( Micro World behind the Imperial Hotel, as well as bring sunscreen and thick clothes. At noon that day, the store called again to remind us to bring thick clothes, because the sea was windy. The whale watching boat going to sea is a small boat, with two floors up and down, and a white uncle explained the whole process. The uncle is very dedicated, and the three-hour itinerary has been popularizing marine animal knowledge for everyone. From why whales are gathering here to the whale's pregnancy cycle, from marine conservation and commercial fishing restrictions to how to distinguish different whales. He feels really passionate about the ocean and is willing to share his thoughts with our novelty passers-by. About an hour after going to sea, I arrived at the place where the whale was infested. The engine stopped and waited quietly for the whale to appear. Suddenly someone got excited. There was a small mist on the sea in the distance, which was the water sprayed by the whale as it breathed. So the boat turned to the whale and everyone waited quietly. A while later, I saw a water mist in the other direction... A few times I saw the whale spraying water about 100 meters away and exposed a black spine, and a high-lighted tail and slapped it down... The uncle said that this is the whale to dive, and it will take about8-10 minutes to come back for ventilation. Later, we took us to see California sea lions, lazily paved the entire island, so that the air was filled with the smell of wildlife. I was lucky to encounter seagulls and giant algae, but I was busy holding the child and didn't look carefully. I thought that this group of foreigners was in good spirits to see the kelp floating on the sea... The sea breeze was really cold, and the waves were higher than a wave after the boat opened. When the boat was stopped and waiting for the whales, the boat was swung back and forth by the waves. The big friend vomited out lunch in the smell of rocking and the diesel in the cabin... But look To the blue and black deep sea, thinking of swimming in this deep sea giant, still feel that it is a worthwhile trip to recall.
