Weekly Update August #3

Ahoy, intrepid explorers! This past week was great for dolphin sightings, and we’re excited to share the highlights with you! We are the most successful dolphin watching boat in Lisbon, with 47 moons (aye, 3 years and 8 months) with only 2 failed ocean tours. We found at least a second group in all dolphin tours.
This week’s sightings
      • 1 dolphin species spotted: common dolphin
      • No whale watching this week…
      • And the Tagides group has not been spotted for 15 days.. So be aware of those party boats selling river cruises with dolphins, there haven’t been dolphins in the river.
For the bird watchers
We’ve seen: Cory’s Shearwater, Storm petrel and Northern Gannet.
Tour stats
      • All tours rated 3 stars on our scale ***
      • Average distance travelled: 10 leagues (aye, 56kms) round trip.
      • Average time at Sea: 2h40

Looking ahead
Next week begins rough… with the incoming storm Vitor(?) coming to our shores Tomorrow, Sunday the 23rd and still troubling Monday the 24th with rain, wind and waves. Tuesday the 25th should have the week’s best weather, followed by windy and rainy conditions for the following 2 days. Friday the 28th looks promising and the weekend it only needs the wind to soften a little. Specially with the Tagides in the river these days look well within reach. Better days shall come on Thursday the 3rd & onward.
