Flying Fish vs Brown Booby: Seen From Our Cruise Ship 🌊 Grand Princess #grandprincess #cruisevlog
My first time ever seeing flying fish! Filmed from Grand Princess in the middle of the Pacific on our way from Los Angeles to Hawaii. The video is at half speed to be able to see them more clearly. They’re only about a foot long, but they can swim at up to 35 mph to launch out of the water and glide. A quick tail-dip back in keeps them going, and one glide can carry them hundreds of feet over the water. They’re a common sight from cruise ships in warmer waters. Then a brown booby showed up. It took several attempts, but it finally dove in and caught one for lunch... and one lucky flying fish got away. 🛳 Grand Princess (Princess Cruises), 28 days LA to Sydney 🎬 Full trip series on the channel #flyingfish #brownbooby #cruise #cruiselife #GrandPrincess #PrincessCruises #Hawaii #wildlife #shorts
