Yes. Many, many miles. Typically whales migrate each season from cold water either near the Arctic or Antarctic (not all whales swim the same route) then back to the warmer waters maybe near the equator. Just look up whale migration routes and you will find plenty of maps to look at, or you could search for a specific whale and its migration patterns.
It varies by species, but on average, a whale can swim anywhere from 50-100 miles daily. Some species, like the humpback whale, may travel even greater distances during migration.
A Humpback Whale can swim up to 17 miles per a hour!

Here is one way of working this out - find out how far the whale can swim in 1 min.1 and 1/4 hours = 60 + 15 mins = 75mins.The whale can swim 40 miles in 75 mins. So devide 40 by 75 and this is how far it can swim in 1 min. = 40/75 = 0.53333333333333333333333333333333 miles.1 hour = 60 mins so multiply how far the whale can swim in 1 min (0.53333333333333333333333333333333) by 60 to get how far the whale can swim in 1 hour. = 60*0.53333333333333333333333333333333 = 32 miles.Here is another way of working this out - by fractions.1 hour = 4 quarters hours1 and one forth of an hour = 5 quarter hoursit takes the whale 5 quarter hours to swim 40 miles so how far can it swim in 4 quarter hours or 4/5 ths of the time.ie 4/5*40 = 32miles
0.114 miles
Killer Whale (Orcinus orca) - 34.5 miles per hour - 55 Kilometers per hourAn orca's powerful tail can propel it through the water at speeds of up to an amazing 35 miles per hour!A killer whale can swim from 20 to 50 M.P.H.
4,500 meters is about 2.8 miles.
They swim or they drown. So yes they swim
