Dear whalewatchers:
We had a great night at anchor last night and enjoyed sunrise at the beautiful Isla Santa Catalina. We went for a morning hike in the arroyo and found lots of desert iguanas and other reptiles (including the rattleless rattler), singing birds and the wonderful cactus garden present on this remote island. After hiking, several people went snorkeling in a cove on the island and others took a coastal cruise.
After lunch, we set off to find whales. We watched a large herd of common dolphin and a small group of bottlenose dolphins. After a quiet time, we stayed with a small humpback whale who breached and showed flukes regularly.
Today’s photo is that whale, after a close visit to the bow!
We plan to anchor tonight at Bahia Agua Verde.
