\nOur lookout<\/a> was guiding us to an area far away yesterday but it was worth every mile we
\nwent out. Both in the morning and the afternoon we managed to find sperm whales<\/a> in
\ncalm water. In the morning they were separated in small groups of mothers
\nand calves, but several were to be seen in a short period of time coming and going
\nfor shallow dives. We managed to see one tail, relatively close to oursmall boat. In
\nthe afternoon the sperm whales were socialising so we could see them close
\nto each other, with a total of around 8 individuals, among them also calves. On both
\ntrips we spent some time with dolphins around our boats. In the mornig we had
\nthe <\/span>Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/span><\/a> close and the common dolphins<\/a> were visible in the
\ndistance. The common dolphins were showing their nice colourful
\npattern next to our boats in the afternoon. We could see some leaps in the
\ndistance of the Atlantic spotted dolphins while making our long way of 20 miles
\nfrom Ponta Delgada.<\/span><\/div>\n
