Hello whalewatchers,
Last night we had a trememdous journey north as we encountered with miles and miles of bioluminescence! There were schools of fish that appeared as a big balls of light and other fish that made for a great show for those that stayed up late to enjoy it.
We enjoyed a spectacular sunrise at Punta Colorado on Isla San Jose this morning. We started the day early with a wake-up call for everyone to see this event.
Then passengers went ashore for a desert arroyo walk and then a snorkel session for those interested. It was a busy morning! We are headed offshore this afternoon looking for whales.

Hello whalewatchers,
We had a good visit at Punta Colorado this morning! We travelled north in the San Jose channel looking for whales and wildlife. We had good looks at black and least storm petrels.
We did come across two adult gray whales heading south close to the peninsula. We have seen gray whales in the Sea of Cortez before but can’t recall seeing them this far north. Here’s the position 25.32″ north and 111.00 West. About 50 miles east of the town of Loreto. A rare sighting for us.
There was also an awesome sunset over the peninsula this evening.
