Few moments in life match the breathtaking experience of spotting whales in the wild, watching their majestic forms dive beneath the surface or breach in the open sea. These magnificent animals have become a symbol of oceanic conservation, and in 1980, World Whale Day was established to raise awareness of the threats whales face in their environments. In this video, witness the awe-inspiring beauty of a panoply of whales in Antarctica and see why these encounters inspire travelers to protect these special cetaceans and their homes.
