AM and PM trip we sunny and calm and beautiful! Truly perfect conditions for whale watching.

Almost zero swell, no white caps and great visibility.

It was a fairly quiet day on the water, lots of birds resting but we caught up with a traveling duo of humpback whales making their way to Cabo for the winter!

They synchronized their dives and were keeping a very consistent 5-6 minute dive cycle.

We saw one humpback “kelping” and draping kelp on its fluke.

The best part was beautiful full fluke dives on every single dive.

Who doesn’t love seeing a whale tail?
