Hello Whalewatchers!
We had a very successful day! We started with whale sharks in La Paz Bay. Chicolera tours provided us with 2 great trips,
the first for our snorkelers and the second for our observers – who also saw a humpback whale! We departed the whale shark zone and traveled north towards Isla Espiritu Santo and 
Isla Partida. In transit, we came across an area of frigatebirds diving on a bait ball with pelicans, gulls and a few shearwaters. It was great to see them all feeding.
We went a little further north and saw a Bryde’s whale. Fortunately, we were able to follow it for a while and get great views. These whales can be shy and hard to watch, but not this one! In between sightings of the Bryde’s whale, we had a few smooth tailed mobulas jumping next to us. Everyone enjoyed that seeing that!
We traveled further north to Los Islotes for a skiff ride to view the sea lions and blue footed boobies. Then had another
snorkel session.
What a day! We finished it off with Charley’s famous rack of lamb with a red wine sauce. I forgot to mention the weather has been great with calm seas and light winds! All in all a perfect day.
