Whales off the Port of MackayUp to eight humpack whales, some with calves, paid a brief visit to Mackay Harbour this morning.
The whales were spotted frolicking in the warm swallow water between the Northern Breakwall and Slade Islet about 10 a.m. today.
The "tourists" put on a rare display much to the delight of spectators who converged at the end of the Southern Breakwater for a ringside seat of the action.
