Hello whalewatchers,
We enjoyed great day for whalewatching with not much wind and very little sea, though we didn’t see a whole lot until the afternoon. We saw a sei whale briefly, just long enough to ID it. Then it vanished and we didn’t see it again.
We went a little further and saw humpbacks breaching in the distance so we went that way. We had a great show with breaching and tail lobbing. There were three whales together and we were able to stay with them for a while. We saw about 10 other humpbacks and some bottlenose dolphin.
Next we saw a area of about 100 black storm petrels feeding, along with the occasional frigatebird.
All in all a great day! Looking forward to tomorrow around the Gorda Banks for more humpbacks.
