Hello whalewatchers,
Today we spent the morning watching humpback whales. We had whales in view for the entire morning, with around a total of 30 humpbacks and seven gray whales, which was interesting to see this far south again. We had excellent looks at humpbacks, close-up looks at flukes, but not too much in the breaching behavior but some great whalewatching.
The wind came up around 11:30 so we headed for Bahia Los Frailes and everyone had a nice walk and some great bird watching. Those who chose to snorkel had great visibility and saw lots of fish. The water temp is cool at 67 degrees but for those who had a wetsuit, it wasn’t a problem.
We are headed north and the weather is good so far and the forecast looks favorable for the next few days so we are looking forward to getting up in the Sea of Cortez.
More tomorrow,
Capt Art
