\nWe enjoyed another amazing summer day in S\u00e3o Miguel today!
This morning we passed our sighting average with four different cetaceans species: <\/span><\/span>common dolphin<\/span><\/a>, some shy bottlenose dolphin, curious Atlantic spotted dolphin and our resident whale, the <\/span><\/span>sperm whale<\/span><\/a>!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span>This afternoon we still encountered good weather conditions and a lot of sperm whales showed their tail and the seasonal <\/span><\/span>Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a><\/span><\/span> were playing between them around us. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/span><\/span>Other boats had other experiences but the sperm whales were playing the lead in all stories. One highlight was 4 tails seen together when a group of socialising females with their offspring decided to go synchronised for a deep-sea dive. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/span><\/span>The <\/span><\/span>bottlenose dolphins<\/a><\/span> in the afternoon were also a delight when they approached the boat and some leapt. So day after day we are collecting beautiful experiences.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
