\n<\/a>Today we had some fantastic encounters with wild dolphins in the Azores. We had clients swimming<\/a> with common dolphins<\/a> and bottlenose dolphins<\/a> off one of our zodiac boats while the rest of us were enjoying the views of the dolphins from aboard our catamaran Cetus. As is often the case, the dolphins were very playful and curious towards us. We instantly recognised the group of bottlenose dolphins as recently we have encountered these particular ones regularly here along the south coast of S\u00e3o Miguel island. After searching offshore for a mystery whale blow that our lookout had spotted once (unfortunately we never found the whale but we had a nice ride) we came across a large group of striped dolphins<\/a> on our way back in to shore. The group of about 50 dolphins was very energetic as they were “running” through the water. We spotted many tiny calves in this group, giving us a great end to our tour!<\/div>\n
