In this stunning encounter with Humpback Whales and their calves off the shore of Vava’u in the Kingdom of Tonga, we explore the possibilities of non-verbal communication underwater as well as on land as we drive around the pacific island in an older but seemingly indestructible Mercedes-Benz C-Class. For Australian freediver and marine biologist Lucas Handley, who is experienced in his interaction with sharks, this is the first time he gets up close and personal with these giant acrobats of the sea.

We thank the people of Vava’u for all their support while we stayed on their beautiful island.)
