Hello everyone!

This morning we started with the magnificent Sperm Whales. We stayed there until it dove and we get to see the tail… but before that we had a very special moment. We saw Sperm Whales JUMPING!!! It was so nice, it jumped 3 times, then rested a bit and then it dove 🙂 .

Then, for the first time this year I saw the Atlantic Spotter Dolphins. They are very curious, so they approach the boat to see what it is. In the group we had some juveniles and adults, we could see through the spots, since they gain spots as they grow older. Then we had 2 more dolphin’s species: the Bottlenose and Common Dolphins. The Bottlenose were hiding a bit but the Common Dolphins were jumping around.

I hope you had enjoyed, see you at Terra Azul!
