azwhales
In the morning tour again we went far away to see some whales, this time they were southern from Ponta Delgada. At the beggining the whales were very tricky and it was quiet dificult to see them, but sudenly they got calmer and we managed to see two sei whales very calm and very close from our boat.
Diferent Futurismo boats were outside, and some saw also a fin whale and some Risso’s, bottlenose, common and spotted dolphins.
In the afternoon we went to west side to try to cacht some sperm whales that our lookout had spotted; but we didn’t find them… What we found was an amazing group of pilot whales and a giant group of spotted dolphins that were playful and social.
