Hello everyone!

Today we started our tour with the Bottlenose dolphins. At the beginning they were very relaxed but then they started to jump around and socializing with each other. We even saw two of them with the bellies together! Not too far from where we were we saw some Risso’s Dolphins with Bottlenose dolphins. It wasn’t a big group but we could see the two of them.

 

 

 

Then our lookout told us to go to a baleen whale area. We stayed there for a bit and then we saw the magnificent body of a Fin Whale! The whale was feeding, so it was always up and down. Again, not too far from us, we had a big group of Common Dolphins. This ones were really active, always jumping in big groups  at the same time. We also had juveniles and calves (some were really tiny) in the group jumping with the mother. We are staring to see more and more calves in the groups, which means that the water is starting to get warmer and the Summer is closer!
