Capt Aaron and crew came upon a fantastic whalewatching experience while on our annual 5-day Labor Day Pelagic Birding Tour (September 5-9, 2016). There was a group of 40-60 whales–blue, fin, and humpback whales–in the same area feeding on krill and squid. This video was taken while some of the whales came very close to the boat. Enjoy!

Hello whalewatchers: We had a wonderful sunrise at Punta Colorado to start the day, then a nice walk and a snorkel session. There are lots of flowers in the arroyo. Then we headed north in the San Jose channel in Sea of Cortez. We came across a large herd of long-beaked common dolphin and a big group of pilot whales. There were also lots of black storm petrels. The highlight was as we arrived at Isla Santa Catalina we had bottlenose dolphin in the bioluminecence riding the bow. It is very hard to describe, but it is very dark and a torpedo with a trail behind approaching the boat from 200 yards away. It truly is one of the best things we see on these trips.
