Weekly Update September #4

In the past week we found dolphins in all of the dolphin watching tours. We took half an hour or less to find the first dolphin group in 25% of the tours. We sighted 3 dolphin species, the common dolphin, striped dolphins and bottlenose dolphins. We we also had harbour porpoises, a Cuvier´s Beaked Whale and a Swordfish.

On average, we had 10 guests per dolphin watching tour and 2 seasickness cases. Sea state was on average sea state zero.

This following week we expect perfect mornings all week. Afternoons will become near perfect by the weekend, we will see if we can open afternoon tours.

Weekly Update September #2

In the past week we found dolphins in all of the dolphin watching tours. We found at least a second group in all tours but one. We sighted 2 dolphin species, the common dolphin and striped dolphins. We we found harbour porpoises.

On average, we had 9 guests per dolphin watching tour and 1 seasickness case. Sea state was on average sea state 1.

The dolphins kept away from the river for all week except for yesterday (Sep. 10th) and on a preliminary analysis none of the regular individuals were found. We will have to check how this goes to see if we open the river tours.

This following week we expect near perfect mornings until the weekend and probably with the return of the sun. The weekend will be a bit windy and with slim chances of rain. From now, there is no need to cancel the tours.
