Whale watching in São Miguel and Pico Islands



In São Miguel Island, it was raining so the
visibility for our lookouts was quite limited even though we managed to
encounter Bottlenose dolphins and Atlantic spotted dolphins. It was a delight
to see them jumping and witness the presence of small calves in their groups.

As the wind was picking up more in the afternoon and the sea conditions got
worse we had to cancel all our sea tours. Nevertheless we had an interesting
guest offering us an stimulating talk about micro plastics and what to do
against it;  Johan de Meij a sailor and an ambitious ocean conservationist
which told us about his participation about plastic contaminating the
ocean and us.

In Pico Island we had a very active marine life! 
We saw Bottlenose dolphins, Risso’s and four Sei whales
