Best morning ever! We had a blue whale<\/a> (maximum size 33 meters) passing just under our zodiac boat (8 meters), normally blue whales are a little shy but this one was really curious. After we went for a small pod of false killer whales that were very active on the surface and out of the blue, some common dolphins<\/a> join us. At a certain point, the false killer whales reached the blue whale from the beginning and unfortunately, they were trying to hit<\/span>
\nthe whale. One of the preys of false killer whales<\/a> is whales. To end this beautiful morning we encounter a very big pod of bottlenose dolphins<\/a> that were always around the boat. In the afternoon we saw a blue whale swimming really fast, a small pod of bottlenose and common dolphins and we still add one more species to the list! Two fin whales<\/a> side by side and another one a little bit further away!<\/span><\/span>
