Whales can stay under water for over an hour. When the Arctic Ocean freezes over, whales must search for open stretches of water to get a breath of fresh air.

That depends on how deep you are, and how heavily you're breathing. Air gets compressed at greater depths, so with each breath, you'll go through more of it. You can often stay down 45 minutes to an hour at depths of 20 to 30 feet. On deeper dives, you may only get 15 or 20 minutes. As you get more experienced, you'll learn to prolong your air supply by breathing more slowly, and by conserving your energy. See similar questions...

Smile and count your lucky stars. If you are concerned that a whale is coming at your kayak and doesn't know that you are there, simply knock on the hull of the kayak and they will get the message. Our philosophy is that we do not approach within 100m of a whale, nor do we encircle whales should we see them. However, sometimes whales will come close to the kayaks and if they swim your way, enjoy the view. Back To Top Health: See similar questions...

The blue whale is the largest animal on earth (growing larger than even the biggest of dinosaurs were). A 100 foot blue whale is as long as three school buses. Blue whales grow to about 70 to 80 feet in the northern hemisphere (north of the equator) and 90 to 100 feet in the southern hemisphere (south of the equator). Female blue whales grow larger than males. The longest blue whale ever recorded was 110 feet. See similar questions...

The quickest a bird can be released is usually around 5 days however most average up to 7 days in captivity. Our goal is always to get them in and out as soon as possible to reduce the effects of captivity. See similar questions...

The goal is to stay at each castle for 2 hours. In many cases we stay longer than 2 hours. Many factors go into the amount of time visiting a castle, two important ones are the number of castles seen in a day and distance to the castles. We try to stay in hotels as close as possible to the castles in order to minimize the travel time and maximize visiting time. But, this is not always possible, since many castles are in remote areas.
