What a great day! 5 Species in total – Sperm Whales, Fin Whales, Common Dolphins, Risso’s Dolphins and Striped Dolphins! And very flat ocean and a sunny day!

In the morning we sighted a small group of Common Dolphins feeding.

A group of 3 Sperm Whales, an adult with a Juvenile and a Calf.

In the afternoon 2 Fin Whales resting and feeding.

And to finish a very playful group of Common Dolphins bow riding and racing the boat!

So this was a perfect day! Right before a few days of bad weather coming to the Azores….

Stay tuned for more updates on our tours! 🙂
