Before every tour I let the guests know “If I could show you everything in the Ocean I would”. Only after some tours am I able to say the magic words ” Guys I don’t think theres much more to show you”. Today I was able to use this phrase, which I keep for special sightings, on three out of three tours on the Stenella !! Its been a long day…. Its been a strange day…. So I’ll keep it short. Tour One : Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus), Tour Two : Loggerhead Sea Turtle (Caretta caretta) and last (but far far far from least), Tour Three : Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae). The amount of research admin now needing to be done is quite enough.
