Hello whalewatchers:

We all had a great day today starting with a good walk on Isla Santa Catalina–including finding the endemic rattleless rattlesnake! We offered a  “Crazy Coastal Cruise” and a snorkel session at this beautiful island as well.

We left the island and travelled west towards the peninsula hoping for some whales and dolphin. We were lucky again and found a single blue whale that was wonderful to watch. It dove for 10 minutes and was then on the surface for two minutes, all in the same area. We also saw a cow and calf blue whale to end this Baja-perfect day.

Laughing gull

We also found lots of bird life with elegant terns, Heermann’s gulls, brown pelicans, and a rare laughing gull.

We are having dinner on the back deck tonight with margaritas and music!
