It was a cloudy day today with, however, lots of sharp bright light shining on the ocean surface. In the middle of the bright light there were 2 sperm whales blowing! They stayed on the surface for a while, then went for several shallow dives, and appeared again. Another 2 sperm whales appeared, this time a mother and a calf that were travelling!
Later on we spotted a small, but super interactive group of Atlantic Spotted dolphins. They were following our boat on high speed, and we had a lot of fun watching their interaction with us! Then a larger group of Common Dolphins appeared and showed their beautiful colours! In the afternoon the common dolphins were surfing the waves and speeding up and breaching.
Atlantic spotted dolphin – Stenella frontalis
Common dolphin / Delphinus delphis
Looking forward for tomorrow’s sightings!
