We had an amazing sunset trip with a Humpback whale and ~500 Long-beaked Common dolphins!
We cruised out to the west and once we got to the drop-off we followed the contour to the north. We noticed a huge bird pile with birds diving into the water! We caught up with a fun pod of ~500 Long-beaked Common dolphins. They raced over to us and bow-rode the boat and surfed beside us! We sighted a huge spout next to them which belonged to a Humpback whale! We were excited to see it surface for 5-7 breaths and down for 6-min dives. We didn’t get to see too many tails except for the first one, but we enjoyed close looks. The ride home was nice and smooth!
We have three trips tomorrow, so we hope to sea you there!
