Marine Big 5 daily blog

The day started off overcast but it cleared up soon during our tour. Due to low tide we launched from Gansbaai and made our way around the Danger Point peninsula. Once past the Danger Point lighthouse we were heading straight into deeper waters, where we have been lucky to find a Bryde’s whale female with her calf. Reaching geyser Rock after such an incredible sighting we were surprised that it has been so empty and most Cape fur seals have been out to sea hunting for some fish. After seeing some African penguins, we passed the shark cage diving boats and took a slow drive back to Kleinbaai. Before reaching the harbour, we spotted a pod of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins very close to shore. It has been the same individuals we have encountered yesterday already. All in all, it has been a fantastic day at sea, we could have not asked for any better.
