Spyhopping sperm whale in the Azores

Spyhopping sperm whale in the azores. At the end of the video the whale is so close, I could have touched it! Amazing! At around 1:20 - 1:45 you can hear the whale make a clicking sound.

Where did you take this movie (what Island)? I took one too this summer off Pico that is very similar to yours. Very exciting these moments!

@AutorinDorisThomas The movie was taken not to far from Lajes do Pico and as I recall, quite close to the Costline of Pico. It was our first trip out, and our first whale watching trip ever, so we felt quite lucky.

I can't believe I'm going to do this next week, I can only hope to have the same luck.

Sperm whales are nutty social butterflies.

That is incredible.

I did go out this August from Lajes too. This is crazy.

Maybe we saw the same curious female sperm whale.
