Close Encounter With Humpback Whale

Occurred on July 10, 2023 / Kingdom of Tonga

Info from Licensor: A recent Humpback Whale encounter while on tour with Freediving Central on one of their adventure trips in the kingdom of Tonga. Filmed by @danparsons.freediver, these playful Humpback whales spent over an hour with us playing in the water and putting on the show of a lifetime. Every year Freediving Central takes groups of people to the kingdom of Tonga to have the bucket list experience of a lifetime! These Humpback whales migrate to Tonga from all over the world every year to give birth, mate, and enjoy some fun in the sun. Humpback whales communicate through song, their songs are found in different parts of the world every year. They are like big puppy dogs, very gentle and inquisitive. @danparsons.freediver has extensive knowledge on Humpback whales having worked with world-renowned whale scientists and worked with National Geographic and whale documentary Secrets of the Whales.
