It took some time to get around but the reward during the morning tour was great. We started with two adult <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/sperm-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sperm whale<\/a> and a baby, they were social and rolling around, spyhopping and we even got the see the eye of the baby. We left them when more boats arrived and on our way closer to the shore we got rewarded by a breaching <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/sperm-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sperm whale<\/a>.
