Hello whalewatchers:

We had a little bit of breeze this morning sliding into Isla San Benito, however it decreased dramatically throughout the day. There were plenty of pinipeds on the beaches and rocks around the island: elephant seals, California sea lions and Guadalupe fur seals.

We left the islands after our hike at around 2 p.m in search of wildlife. We found some humpbacks that were not too easy to observe, and medium herd of common dolphin. We enjoyed some great birding to as well.

We are headed for Laguna San Ignacio right now and will be crossing the bar first thing in the morning.
