Incredible moment a curious sperm whale swims right up to US tourists snorkeling in the Dominican Republic
Peter Allison and his family from Maryland were in the Dominican Republic when they were snorkeling off the coast
He said: 'It was an awesome experience. I felt so lucky to be able to capture this, it was a very special moment'
Mr Allison's son Marc managed to dive down along with the giant sperm whale who was joined by a pod member
The sperm whale is the largest toothed animal in the world and can dive to more than 3,280 feet while chasing squid

Several years ago a woman I thought in California was grabbed by whale who took her for a dive. If I recall correctly that was illegal. Nice pics though
