The tours were pure adrenaline with waves with aroud three meters&#8230; but close to the thirty meters of whale&#8230; it&#8217;s nothing!!<br \/>\nIn the morning tour we spoted blue whales, fin whales and sperm whales. In the afternoon, second and third tour, were saw blue whales and fin whales.<br \/>\nDuring spring time we are more focused in Baleen Whales sightings because is the right time to see these big giants. But our sperm whales never disappear completely and we do not miss the opportunity to enjoy their company. Here we post some of our pictures.
