🐋 A Little Help From Shore

August 09, 2026/ Spirit Australia

📅 Sunday, 09 August 2026

Both Southern Ocean Adventure tours were treated to fantastic sightings of 4x Southern Right Whales today (two Cow/Calf pairs), thanks to some very helpful shore reports from our crew.

Apparently, spotting whales is just part of the job… Our crew are out there doing it even when they’re off shift!

We’re not saying we’re obsessed with whales… but we’re also not saying we aren’t. 😉

It’s encounters like these that make the winter weather worth it. What a day on the water!

The Big Duck respect & honour the ancestors & people of the Ramindjeri lakinyeri (clan) of the Ngarrindjeri Nation; on the Yarluwar-Ruwe (lands & waters) in which we operate our tours. We actively collaborate, share, preserve culture & protect ngaitji (totems).

We acknowledge the Ramindjeri & Kaurna people as the Traditional Custodians of the Yarluwar (waters) on which we meet & operate our tours. We pay deep respect to the past/present Elders & to all Aboriginal peoples.
