This
morning started with a little bit of rain, but during the trip it stayed mostly
dry and we even had some sun! First, we encountered some playful dolphins, the
bottlenose dolphins that were swimming around the boat. They stayed around our
boat for a while which gave us the opportunity to make some nice pictures.
Afterwards we got information of the lookouts that there was a baleen whale in
the area, a sei whale! However, the whale was playing hide and seek and after
some time we had to cancel our search and had back to Ponta Delgada.
The
afternoon trip started with some amazing weather (especially for this season)
and with a lot of rainbows, which gave a beautiful effect. The dolphins enjoyed
it too! We encountered the same group of dolphins as at the morning tour;
bottlenose dolphins, although this time they were very active and even made
some amazing jumps! After this amazing show we went further up south to find a
sei whale that was spotted by our lookout. However, this individual was also
good in the game hide and seek, which made it very difficult to find the
animal. Again, we had to cancel our search and headed back to Ponta Delgada.
