Ember

(WCNE Adopt A Whale)

(watch a video clip below of how he was named)

Ember is a whale that has given whale watchers chills (good ones) on many occasions.  While some humpbacks seem to enjoy just being near the boats, Ember does some outrageous things that resemble normal whale behaviors gone wild.

We have recorded him twisting and turning, spinning and even going under the boat upside down!  One time he came up tail first!  The term used to describe a whale coming up tail first is a "backup"!  Ember put his tail about 10 feet in the air and held it there while spinning around.  Quite a feat for something as big as a billboard.

Please enjoy this introduction to Ember from the Salt & Friends: Humpback Whales With Names DVD

How can I see more of Ember?

Ember is the star on two DVD's produced by The Whale Video Company ($18.99 each)

Salt & Friends: Humpback Whales With Names

The story of Ember is three minutes in length.  It shows Ember in a close approach that can only be described as an underwater ballet.  You see Ember stand on his head and come up tail first!  Ember is also seen feeding and breaching.

Your Adopted Whale: Ember

We selected the very best clips of Ember from 17,096 trips to the feeding grounds where this whale can be sighted from April thru October.

You will be delighted to spend time with Ember during an outstanding whale watch trip.  He is seen breaching, lobtailing, rolling and flippering so close you can see his eye.
