Yesterday 29th of July we had a fabulous morning tour. We kicked off with Sei whales, or possibly Bryde’s, we were unsure since we couldn’t get a good view of the head, and characteristic ridges. Amongst the whales there were Atlantic spotted dolphins, joining the feeding frenzy, just like the fisher men in the background.
The wind picked up and we headed inland where we met more spotted dolphins, socialising and playing. As usual, Cory’s shearwaters made an appearance, showing off their comical take offs. The common dolphins then appeared out of nowhere, and one individual in particular put on a show, leaping repeatedly out of the water, belly up.
As we approached the coast we gave a big hello and thank you to Nicole, our illustrious lookout! Her patience and focus allowed us to see three different species! Of course the tour wouldn’t be anything without our skilful skipper Savi and our lovely guide Flora.
