In São Miguel we had a great summer day: great sea and sun in the sky! We have seen a great group of bottlenose dolphins, curious and always close to the boat, very active, jumping and socializing all day.

And sei whales!! This week we have seen them several times, and today both in the morning and afternoon tours, different animals on each trip, constantly traveling west. We could perfectly see the (only) ridge on the top of the head. Wish them a nice migration further north!

In Pico Island, we had a Sperm whale day! In the morning several females with juveniles that showed us the tails. Still, in the morning time, we saw our resident dolphin species: the common dolphins and Risso’s dolphins and also the last sighting…some Sowerby beaked whales! In the afternoon a big male that showed one really high tail. Both in the morning and afternoon, we could see pilot whales.
