Sunday | Whale Watching Azores

Today we went to the east of São Miguel Island to see whales and dolphins. We started with fin whales, what looked to be an adult and a juvenile travelling together. We had a brief visit with them, but our ultimate goal was to reach the sperm whales which our lookout had spotted further to the east. We had a really nice look at several different individuals that were coming and going to the surface. To top of this fantastic tour we still had a group of playful common dolphins to see on our way back to Ponta Delgada.
