9:30 uur Walvissafari en dolfijnwaarneming:

Bottlenose Dolphin
Common Dolphins

It’s Comic-Con weekend, which means we had guests from all over the world aboard, including some from France and the UK! We sighted a pod of 10 bottlenose dolphins right in the harbor as we set out to sea! It was hazy offshore, but we were also able to see a pod of about 300 common dolphins. Guests loved seeing the baby dolphins swimming alongside their mothers and the acrobatic jumps of the commons as they soared above the ocean. We returned to shore with calm, smooth seas.

Uw naturalist,

Yvonne, Aimee

9:30 uur Walvissafari en dolfijnwaarneming:

California Sea Lions
Common Dolphins
Bottlenose Dolphins
Mola mola (Ocean Sunfish)

Cool ocean breezes made for a lovely day on the water and offered a welcome break from the heat on land. In San Diego Harbor, California sea lions lounged on buoys, delighting children who were eagerly watching for marine life. As we headed west toward the Nine Mile Bank, we soon encountered about 50 common dolphins. They swam close around the boat, rode our wake, and leapt out of the water. Farther out to sea, we spotted about 30 bottlenose dolphins riding the bow of the boat. We also saw a large mola mola, or ocean sunfish, along with many seabirds. On the return trip, a Los Angeles-class submarine passed us as it headed back into San Diego Harbor. Passengers enjoyed a beautiful view of the San Diego skyline while listening to detailed narration about the many naval vessels and aircraft we passed on the journey back to port.

Uw naturalisten,

Karen L, Carla, and Jim C
