The video was taken January 22, 2018
We had the privilege to snorkel with a baby humpback whale...He kept coming sooooo close to us. He swam right up to one of our divers, Rob, he could have kissed him. We could hear them during the dives and as we were heading back to Playas Del Coco they were just inside the Coco bay. We never saw the mother or the escorts but I can assure you that they were there... close by and keeping an eye on that youngster. In all the twenty years that I have been diving in the Costa Rica Gulf of Papagayo I have never had this sort of experience before...BLESSED! I saw into the eye of a whale and he looked deep into my soul and I was blessed! I still cant believe the experience we all had. Here is the video of the young humpback whale approaching our diver to have a better look and Rob actually ... gently pushed it away. He said it was really soft.
