Yup, seen a few of those this spring travelling south with their babies, come in quite close to the shore as well. Oh and dolphins in the creeks. - The Gold coast has it all

Re: Bet ya can't do this in OZ
Whale watching is a big business in WA.Go down to the shipyards in Henderson and dolphins are usually jumping out of the water in the fitting out basins.A lot of the boys go swimming and fishing during lunchtime.
