Whale watching from sea level is a bit like watching icebergs: there is far more going on under the water than above it. Its only from the air that you get an appreciation of just how huge these creatures are, and where you can enjoy classic images of calves swimming alongside their mothers. Of course, from a light aircraft you can see across a huge expanse of ocean, increasing your chances of spotting whales to a near-certainty in whale season. As well as the whale watching, there’s the sheer thrill of swooping along the stunning coastline and gaining a different and spectacular view of the Whale Coast.
