\nToday it has been a great day with five different species sighted, even one we were not able to identify it!<\/span><\/div>\n
\nIn the morning tour, after seeing the common dolphins<\/a>, two of our boats head to the very Far West! And even very hard to find, we found three sperm whales<\/a>. Also a baleen whale was seen by one of our boats, probably a small sei whale<\/a>, but we are not totally convinced about it! Even it was a short time with the whales, it was worthwile! We remember today that if we want the prize, we should try. Never give up!<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
\nIn the afternoon, we saw again the common dolphins, with plenty of babies in their group, Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a> and also several groups of bottlenose dolphins<\/a>. Without any doubt, today the bottlenose were the most amazing, friendly and curious, jumping and always very close to our boats. Two loggerhead turtles<\/a> were sighted as well, one of them with a pilot fish underneath. Great shearwaters<\/a> are seen almost every day now, hiden among the Cory’s<\/a> and today as well a Sooty shearwater<\/a>.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
\nOn the way back, once again we pick up bottles and plastic bags from the ocean. It is a shame that everyday we are finding more and more. But every single drop helps, so here in Futurismo we keep on trying to reduce our impact! Are you?<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
