Marvel at these beautiful giants of the deep. Watch humpbacks leap gracefully out of the waves. Observe how a mother gives birth to its calf underwater, helping it to the surface to take its first breath. Children will delight in comparing and identifying different whales and will learn what each of them feed on. They will also be introduced to other sea-mammals: walrus, sea lions, seals and manatees.
