Beautiful sea conditions and great visibility out there today! We cruised out to the SW. Beyond the drop-off we found a low-key pod of ~200 Long-beaked Common dolphins! They were slowly traveling toward the west when we caught up with them. There were many cow/calf pairs in the mix that were displaying some fun social behaviors. Many calves were porpoising beside the boat as well as surfing in the wake. Some birds began to follow them and even began diving in and around them. We saw a couple bait balls that the dolphins seemed to enjoy. A Brown Booby was also sighted soaring around the boat.
 
Sea you next time!
