In the past week we found dolphins in all but one of the dolphin watching tours. The tour without dolphins, we got too much wind (bft4) and only managed to see a Fin Whale that day. We sighted 3 dolphin species, the common dolphin, striped dolphins and bottlenose dolphins. We we also had harbour porpoises (picture) and 3 days with Fin Whales. Including a tour with 4 different species.Additionally we found quite large sunfishes, swordfish and blue sharks.
On average, we had 10 guests per dolphin watching tour and 0 seasickness cases. Sea state was on average sea state 1. In the weekend we got quite windy conditions, ending up cancelling Sunday’s tour.
This following week we expect windy conditions until Wednesday 30th. We still plan to go out in the mornings, but we might have to cancel the tours of Tuesday 29th and Wednesday 30th. The rest of the week will have good sea conditions in the morning. The weekend might have some chance of showers.
We will open the Lisbon&Dolphins tour, the river tour between 30th and 2rd to provide the opportunity to check the tall ships from the tall ship race.
