Today we had another fantastic full day tour. During the morning whale and dolphin watching we encountered common dolphins followed by Atlantic spotted dolphins (feeding together with many seabirds and tuna) and the grande finale – a Bryde’s whale also feeding together with birds and more Atlantic spotted dolphins (see photos in our previous blog post). After our lunch in Vila Franca we headed out to the islet where we spent the afternoon snorkeling to see the variety of fish life inside the natural lagoon.
