Information

This Bay is where you may see Dolphins, and in Whale season, passing Whales.
It is named after the Blue Whale, the largest mammal on earth when fully grown, weighing 150 tons and is 30 metres in length. Blue whales were abundant in nearly all the oceans on Earth until the 20th century. They were hunted almost to extinction by whalers until protected by the international community in 1966.
