Whales

Alaska humpback whales amaze observers with their acrobatics, displaying behaviors such as splashing, breaching, and flipper slaps on the water's surface. These aerial activities vary with the time of year and are particularly common in winter mating and calving grounds. Not only does this behavior involve adults, but even young calves often take part. Whale acoustics also differ depending on their living habitat. Alaska humpback whales in coastal areas make localized high-frequency sounds and create unique sounds that can be heard from afar. It is an awe-inspiring spectacle that provides visitors with an unforgettable experience of Alaska's majestic humpback whales.
