Fowlers Bay is geographically isolated, 1000 kilometres from Adelaide, on the edge of the Nullarbor, an hour and a half from the largest nursery for southern right whales in Australian waters, Head of Bight.
Whalers killed at least 66 whales in the calm waters of Fowlers, with records of catches in the early 1840s and by 1844 there were few remaining.
The gentle giants have taken 160 years to come back and more are returning each year.
