Right Whales Spotted off Palm Beach

[Florida Scuba Divers]

Have I ever told you how much we love diving in Palm Beach? While diving on one of our boats we spotted a total of 3 Right Whales and managed to get some footage of one that swam by. You never know what you will see diving off Palm Beach and Jupiter. They are amazing creatures!

AWESOME!
I was blessed to have encountered a 20' long juvenile Humpback Whale about 20 years ago just outside the Boynton Inlet at about 45' deep while diving from the "Starfish Enterprise".
1 second of pure terror until we determined it was a whale, and then about 30 seconds of pure joy.

We spotted one when we were out with JASA on the 28th december cruising northwards in shallow water just up from Breakers, also on the 27th december spotted a young great hammerhead cruising abou the surface around the rons reef area, should have a photo or two so hopefully will post when I have sorted out my camera etc.
There are also a couple of pictures posted on JASA's website on the Palm Beach Blog

very nice: I also heard on the radio on my way home that some surfers (or maybe kite surfers) saw them too
