Description: We had been to multiple whale watching tours in California's Monterrey Bay and in Seward Alaska but never got to see a humpback whale breaching. We were disappointed to learn that breaching is more of a Hawaiian behavior and whales in Alaska are primarily eating most of the time. When we had almost given up all our hopes, this amazing humpback whale breached for more than 30 times during our last whale watching tour in Prince William Sound. The gorgeous snow capped mountains in the background also add to the beauty of this experience. It was as if all our prayers manifested into this breathtaking moment and our hearts were full!
