\nIn S\u00e3o Miguel Island, it was raining so the
\nvisibility for our lookouts was quite limited even though we managed to
\nencounter Bottlenose dolphins and Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a>. It was a delight
\nto see them jumping and witness the presence of small calves in their groups. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\nAs the wind was picking up more in the afternoon and the sea conditions got
\nworse we had to cancel all our sea tours. Nevertheless we had an interesting
\nguest offering us an stimulating talk about micro plastics and what to do
\nagainst it;  Johan de Meij a sailor and an ambitious ocean conservationist
\nwhich told us about his participation about plastic contaminating the
\nocean and us. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

In Pico Island we had a very active marine life! <\/span>
\nWe saw Bottlenose dolphins<\/a>, Risso’s<\/a> and four Sei whales<\/a>! <\/span><\/p>\n
