YouTube Video Description

Every expedition aboard National Geographic Explorer travels with an undersea specialist who dives with a video camera to bring back footage for our guests to watch in the dry warmth and comfort of our lounge. While our Patagonia expedition guests were having close encounters with southern right whales, our undersea specialist had this rare encounter. Video by Steve Ewing.
