Humpback whales are making appearances off the coast of Southern California -- and it's great news for the public lucky enough to see them in the wild.
Recently, a captain with the Pacific Offshore Expeditions, took whale watchers on an all-day excursion and they all got a sight to see off the Redondo Beach coastline.
The whales seemed curious about the boat and even swam right up to the boat - as seen in the video below. The whales were even "singing," audible in underwater footage, according to the story in the OC Register, which first reported the news.
The video was posted on the Pacific Offshore Expeditions Facebook page.
