Blue whales can grow to more than 100 feet in length, and weight more than 100 tons. The length is just one astonishing part of the story. The distance all the way around a blue whales body is enormous too. In the winter, many kinds of whales leave their warmer summer and autumn feeding areas, and go to warm southern waters. Humpback whales in the Atlantic Ocean go mostly down to the Caribbean waters.
Most big whales eat one to three tons per day.
We'd love to have you come to Newburyport to go on a whale watch. I live farther north.
