Hello whalewatchers: Our first day on trip #5 was great and we had good weather with overcast skies and light winds. We saw plenty of northbound gray whales, a single humpback that breached a couple of times, two groups of short-beaked common dolphin with one being a mega-herd of 3000-4000 dolphins!
We saw both types of albatross-laysan and black-footed-plenty of murrelets and auklets, a light-phased northern fulmar and lots of Bonaparte gulls.
Everyone enjoyed our first day and we are looking forward to tomorrow at Isla San Benito.
