This week we went out on our first whale watching trip of the season. Honestly, we didn't expect much since it is still so very early, but sometimes low expectations seem to be the trigger for big events. We encountered a total of 8 whales today, among them two very playful subadult males that kept tailslapping, spyhopping and teasing our boat Malolo to come closer. After them we found another shy couple of whales, a single whale breaching in the distance and a group of three that let us come very close. One of them performed a full body breach right in front of us when we were in the water approaching them. Quite a spectacular sight!
Needless to say that everyone was more than pleased and stepped back on land with a big smile on their faces. Back to find more next week. May the flukes be with us!
We are also happy to introduce our new team members, Kaitlin and Tom.
They are both qualified PADI Open Water Scuba Instructors with diving experience in Honduras, Greece, Fiji, Bali, California and Scotland. Tom is furthermore a sailing instructor and has his RYA powerboat level 2 certification and Kaitlin has additional qualifications as a lifeguard, so our customers are going to be in good hands with them. We are very happy Kaitlin and Tom are joining us for this season and are looking forward to some exciting and fun-filled months with them and our guests above and under water.
