PUNTARENAS, Costa Rica– A group of kayakers in Costa Rica got to see an amazing show of a humpback whale and its calf breaching the water in late August.
The Mamawata Surf Retreat group were kayaking at Playa Escondido hoping to see some whales while in the water on Aug. 23, when the humpbacks started breaching right next to them.
"We were secretly hoping to spot some whales since my boyfriend and I had been seeing them from our house the past few days," a person with Mamawata Surf Retreat said in a post to their Instagram .
