This morning we met Mr. Liable our most frequent seen sperm whale<\/a> male. He went for a deep dive and presented us his famous fluke which is easily recognizable like a finger print. We also encountered common dolphins<\/a> in the morning and afternoon. In the afternoon we went along the coast to the far east end of the island. On our way there we also observed a big group of Risso’s dolphins<\/a> coming quite close. Beautiful moments to see, from the baby to the white scared adults, all different age classes. Close to the edge of the rain we enjoyed a Sei Whale<\/a> accompanied by Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a>. On our long ride back along the south coast we got scenic views of the south coast of S\u00e3o Miguel in the evening light, a close look at the islet of Vila Franca do Campo and even a rainbow behind us.<\/p>\n
