The Perth Canyon - formed by the Swan River when sea levels were lower in now 40Km west of Perth. It is over 1,600m deep and causes fold nutrient rich waters to rise to the surface leading to an abundance of krill where krill in this area. Blue whales frequent this spot during their annual migration and can be seen for a few weeks in Late April and early May. Jacqui, Nicky Pete and I enjoyed a day on the relatively calm Indian Ocean to see these magnificent creatures. What a treat.
