Peppie Simpson runs the popular Whale Songs Charter boats based at Noosa on the South East Queensland Coast of Australia,

While on the ocean she collects data and contributes to the HHR whale research organisation based at Griffith University at the Gold Coast, Australia.

Spending a lifetime with dolphins and whales has led to a fascination with animal communication and as a result she has been a guest speaker at international seminars on the topic. She has been travelling to Hawaii regularly since the 90’s to swim and learn from the spinner dolphins.
