What an absolutely beautiful day to go whale watching.: 80’s and mostly clear sky. We were all excited to go find a whale. Heading out of the inlet, we saw 2 Great Egrets and the Osprey on the nest. Saw some large areas of bait fish on the way north but no whales or sharks. Found some very friendly and active bottlenose dolphins that swam along the boat, crossing under the bow and even swimming upside down. After awhile we continued our northward journey. We searched and searched the area where whales had been seen but the whales evaded us. Although momenterially disappointed, we came upon a frenzy of dolphins! Dolphins left, right and center. Saw a group of about 5 tdolphins all breaching at once! So beautiful ! One group of dolphins was stampeding and they were racing further east. Two ospreys flew overhead looking for fish for lunch. Met some wonderful adventures on board that made the trip so enjoyable. We were even looking for mermaids. It was all part of our great adventure!
