Pilot whales, Bottlenose dolphins, Beaked whale
We have recently seen the following whale and dolphin species on our whale watching tours off La Gomera:
- Pilot whales (Short-finned pilot whales)
- Bottlenose dolphins
- Beaked whale (unidentified)
Unfortunately, the month ended with only a few trips due to the persistent bad weather. However, the trips we were able to make were rewarded with impressive encounters with pilot whales and bottlenose dolphins. Curious young pilot whales approached our boat, and one bull stood out due to its unusual head shape.
In addition, two beaked whales appeared at the surface for only a brief moment before diving back down.
The sighting rate for the entire period is 67%.
