A kayaker in Monterey Bay had an unexpected and very close encounter with a humpback whale. Her astonishment is very vocally expressed . . . not that I blame her!
Any closer and she'd have been washed out of the kayak!

LOL, now THAT would have been funny!
That whale knew exactly what it was doing, it saw them and just wanted a closer look. They are social animals and see nothing wrong with a close encounter.
That is just COOL!!
And COLD. IIRC, summer water temps are about 54*F in that Bay. Makes SCUBA diving "brisk".
Whoa! Earthquake! Had to wait for it to stop, so I could finish typing. Twenty seconds of gentle rolling. Well, smooth, anyway. (San Jose/East Bay area)
Never had a whale visit us when were kayaking out of Monterey, but the otters and the occasional dolphin would check us out.
