Hello whalewatchers,
We startd with a walk and a snorkel session at Bahia Agua Verde today. The weather is tremendous with calm seas and sunny skies.
We left there in search of whales and it didnt take long for the crew to find our first blue whale of the day. It was a long-winded whale down for 15 minutes at a time and not at the surface for very long. The crew spotted another blue whale in the distance and this was a cow and calf. We had excellent looks at both animals. It is truly amazing to see this, a mother and calf blue whale pair. We decided to leave and let mom and baby do what they do.
We headed south and found a humpback, a fin and another blue whale in the same area. We had great looks at blue whale flukes again as well as the right lower jaw of the fin whale. That was a busy afternoon and you could add several Craveri’s murrelets to the list, as well as two Red-billed tropicbirds right after we left Agua Verde.
We ended the day with a great sunset over the peninsula and our traditional back deck buffet with BBQ ribs and all the fixin’s. We hope our UK guests enjoyed this US tradition!
