Southern right whale giving the guest a great show

The guests on our 09h30 trip were lucky to witness a southern right whale breaching just 100m away from the boat. It is astonishing how a 60 ton animal can propel its whole body out of the water. Why do they breach? It’s unknown, but could be a form of communication or to dislodge parasites from their skin.
