\nThe weather was the first beautiful part of the morning! The sea was incredibly calm and there was barely any wind, which made this day ideal for spotting cetaceans! So our morning started off great with a sperm whale. And another, and another, they kept popping up! We had the same unit of sperm whales as the other days. We saw the sperm whale named “Orca” who has a calf. <\/span><\/div>\n

\nAs the sperm whale went to dive, we then headed to the bottlenose dolphins, the second resident species of the day. <\/span><\/div>\n

\nThe dolphins were diving a lot so at some point we headed back to the sperm whales who had resurfaced by this time. We observed the sperm whales resurface one after the other. Time flies when you’re having fun so we headed back to ponta delgada to end the tour, with smiles on our faces \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/div>\n

\nIn the afternoon we enjoyed again the same group of sperm whales. Some of them were foraging, so we managed to see some tails too. And again, some of the well known whales appeared: Orca and Diamond were around. In the afternoon we were not lucky with the dolphins, but the sun keep on shining reminding us that the summer is finally here!<\/span><\/div>\n
