Today we had an authentic summer day, we are pretty sure some of our <\/span>clients and some of our crew members have been burnt by the sun!<\/span>

Ocean was clean and calm with no waves or movements which is great to see <\/span>the cetaceans.<\/span>

We started in the morning with 3 dolphin species: common, spotted and <\/span>bottlenose. Dolphins are on summer mood, especially the lovely spotted that <\/span>have arrived in big, curious groups with many babies, some of the dolphins <\/span>we were seeing were like one day old!<\/span>

Sperm whales were seen in the two tours, both in the morning and in the <\/span>afternoon; today we can say we have many new tails for our tail catalogue; <\/span>even a breaching was seen in the afternoon!<\/span><\/span>
