On Saturday morning, there was a variety of marine life for us to check out. We spotted an ocean sunfish, three humpback whales (Satula, Spoon, and Valley), a fin whale, and a pod of three Atlantic white-sided dolphins.

With calm seas surrounding us, it was pristine conditions for watching wildlife!

On Saturday afternoon, we spent time with humpback whales Satula and Valley.

We were also privy to a fin whale mother-calf pair. This pair is different than the other mother-calf pair we have seen recently. What a cool find!

We also watched another fin whale and a few people even saw the minke whale that briefly surfaced nearby.

The wind and waves were waiting for us offshore on Sunday, as we only had a morning trip. We spent the trip watching humpback whales, Spoon and Valley.

Spoon was busy moving through the water and Valley even created a few bubble clouds.
