Amazing images from Mani: A 20-meter whale swimming next to an inflatable boat (photos)

Not something you see every day

Newsroom August 31 12:18

The experience of a group of friends in their inflatable boat in Mezapos, in Eastern Mani, was unique, when they saw a whale next to them.

The incident took place on Friday afternoon, a few miles from Gerolimenas, when one of the most impressive animals on the planet, a whale of about 18-20 meters in length, with a huge body weight, appeared before them and stayed there for quite some time.
