\nDuring today’s tours both in the morning and afternoon we were with a group of Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a><\/span>! But it is not a normal group, it is the group of thousand individuals that we were spotting these last days. In the afternoon they gave us a feeding frenzy show! <\/span><\/p>\n

There were a lot of seabirds in the area, seagulls, <\/span>Cory’s shearwater<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> and <\/span>great shearwater<\/a><\/span>. <\/span>Also one of our boats managed to see a blue shark chasing the small fishes that were the prey of all the animals of the area. It was a wonderful sighting, this year the Atlantic spotted dolphins are in the mod to make us smile even when we don’t see whales. <\/span><\/p>\n

Also in the same area some of our boats could see a few <\/span>bottlenose dolphins<\/a><\/span> allowing the clients to make the difference of size of both species. <\/span>Common dolphins<\/a><\/span> were around too, they were a small group but thanks of them we can say that today we saw three species of dolphins!<\/span><\/div>\n
