Amazing sightings today!

It looks like summer is
getting to an end.. but with amazing sightings!
In the morning we
sighted very big groups of bottlenose dolphins and of common dolphins. Both
full of babies! And after having the four seasons in half an hour (sun, wind,
waves and heavy rain), we found the sperm whales with a huge sun shining in the
blue sky! It was the same group which we saw yesterday!
In the afternoon, the
four resident species in a fantastic tour. We started with common dolphins,
bottlenose (very active), and heading to the area of whales, we found Risso’s
dolphins! So things we learned from Rafa’s presentation on Wednesday were more
than useful!

After waiting for a
while, on the way back to Ponta Delgada, the sperm whales surprised us to
finish this amazing afternoon. So good to be out at sea in days like today!
