The same 2 humpback whales go wild again. Wow!
Humpback whales go wild again Two humpback whales “mugged” the Condor Express repeatedly today.

Last of the gray whale migration
Captain Dave reports 1 gray whale cow-calf pair today along the coast, along with 20 bottlenose dolphins and about 50 common dolphins. The weather and sea conditions were nice. The old Condor is a “cetacean magnet” just like its younger sister ship. Naturally it helps to have an experienced veteran whale expert like Dave Beezer holding down the helm. Hope … Read More
