“Yet no animals in sight!”, was the first message from our spotter. On the ocean things can change very quickly! First we met a school of Bottlenose dolphins, which accompanied us for a little while. Daniel and I were just talking about Tropical whales, when he suddenly said: “Spout!… There is a whale!” Sometimes it goes like this out on the ocean! Both Tropical whales travelled very fast. In the afternoon it was very nice as well: a small group of Bottlenose dolphins and cozy Atlantic Spotted dolphins. In the light of the evening we had again Atlantic Spotted dolphins which jumped toward us. What a nice godsend!
