What a WILD end to the day! So many surprises! We headed way off shore and found two pods of common dolphin, both short- beaks and long- beaks spread out over a few miles, they were feeding and getting very playful in the wake! O our way home, it was lookin a bit dreary until we sighted a massive kelp paddy and decided to go check it out, on the way we sighted a 5-6 foot mako shark! It was super brave and let us hang out for a while as it circled the boat! If you look closely, you’ll see the sharks eye, gills and even some teeth! Right when e thought we’d make it back to shore without a large baleen whale – we saw a Grey whale!!! It was pretty dark but we saw a strong spout, a few surface breaths and a nice fluke before turning into the jetties!
