March 3: Bahia Agua Verde

posted 3/3/2010

Hello whalewatchers,
Today we are at Bahia Agua Verde, a beautiful spot on the peninsula. We walked on the beach, had a skiff ride along the shore and saw lots of birds, and finally a snorkel in warm, clear water. We stayewd until lunch time and everyone enjoyed our visit.
We headed south looking for whales and we added another species to our list. We saw 6 dwarf sperm whales in a 2-hour period and I thnk everyone got a good lookat one of these whales. That brings our total for cetaceans to 13 different species. There is a chance to see 15 different species on our tour, so to accomplish that in the time we have is really special.
Tonight was margarita night and everyone enjoyed a little tequila and buffet dinner on the back deck.
We had a great day and the weather was phenomenal--flat and calm all day.
Looking forward to tomorrow,
Capt Art
