The Humpback appears to materialise out of nowhere, before disappearing again!
Seawater is typically murky beyond a certain point, meaning that even something as large as a whale can be invisible one moment, then right next to you another!
What a jaw dropping experience

Pablo said “There was a great connection with this amazing animal.
He kept coming closer and closer intrigued and playful.
The following times we just span together under water a few times.
If I can call it a dance... then it was the best one I have ever had.”

Timeless underwater moment with a humpback-whale
-
Found in oceans and seas around the world, humpback whales typically migrate up to 25,000 km (16,000 mi) each year. They feed in polar waters, and migrate to tropical or subtropical waters to breed and give birth, fasting and living off their fat reserves. Their diet consists mostly of krill and small fish. Humpbacks have a diverse repertoire of feeding methods, including the bubble net technique.
Like other large whales, the humpback was a target for the whaling industry. Once hunted to the brink of extinction, its population fell by an estimated 90% before a 1966 moratorium. While stocks have partially recovered to some 80,000 animals worldwide, entanglement in fishing gear, collisions with ships and noise pollution continue to impact the species. @drneilhammer
“Mom, I’m hungry!” Often a mother will swim slowly at the surface while their calf twirls and plays. This behavior promotes growth and builds the strength a calf needs to make the migration north in a couple of months. This calf would nudge his mother and breach very close-by in hopes she would start nursing. Sure enough a few breaches later the mother lay idle at the surface while the calf was able to feed.
