Bryde's Whale (pronounced 'Broo-dess') breaching the surface at Gulf of Thailand (Samut Prakan ).

"Tell anyone you’ve gone whale watching in Thailand and you’ll probably get some very strange looks.

The kingdom is well-known for many things – the winning smiles of its people, its elephants, spicy food, gay-friendliness, and Muay Thai kickboxing. But whales?

The Gulf of Thailand, especially its upper reaches, is home to over 27 different whale and dolphin species. The largest in the water is the Fin whale that can measure up to 27 meters in length.
