Beneath the sunlit cliffs of Flatrock, the morning air was thick with salt spray and gull chatter, setting a scene just right for Evelynn’s grand appearance.
On June 21st, 2025, Evelynn was seen twice in one jubilant day, near The Beamer and off the main shores of Flatrock itself. The blue-green waves seemed to sparkle in celebration as she swept through the shallows. There’s something about that rocky coastline of Newfoundland and Labrador—a stage fit for a whale with a flair for the dramatic arc of a fluking dive, her body a fleeting blend with the stones and surf.
Then, a whole year and a few weeks later, Evelynn turned up in Saint Lunaire-Griquet, snuggled close to the northern tip of the island. July brought out the best of that little corner, with capelin in the bay and the sun hanging late in the sky. Whether she’d travelled the coastline in secret or roamed far-off waters, only the sea knows. All that’s certain is that Evelynn chose her moments well—a dancer surfacing briefly before returning to the mystery below.
Her movements remind us that, even in this age of satellite maps and social media, there’s still plenty of magic in the world’s wild rhythms. Each sighting is a rare glimpse into her journey, pieced together by sharp-eyed folks watching the water's edge.
Saint Lunaire-Griquet is famous for icebergs drifting past in summer—sometimes sharing the stage with whales like Evelynn!
