On our way back we stopped to enjoy the company of <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/common-dolphin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">common dolphins<\/a> and later we were surprised by a young <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/fin-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fin whale<\/a> which was close to the shore line of Ponta Delgada.<br \/>\nThe afternoon was good for more surprises, first we saw the same <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/fin-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fin whale<\/a> as in the morning. A little bit later we saw a group of about 10 <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/false-orcafalse-killer-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">false killer whales<\/a> together with <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/common-dolphin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">common dolphins<\/a>. We only have very few sightings of false killer whales each year so our customers and crew were very lucky today!<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"color: #0b5394;\">Photos from the morning:<\/span><\/b><br
