We found a pod of dolphins riding on the bow wave of 6-7 whales. Some of the dolphins broke off to ride on the bow wave of our boat, Ocean Potion. While my guest Jeff Pantukhoff drove, Roland and Karen Lines, myself and Camilla took video footage and photographs for about an hour as the dolphins played with the humpbacks who were just as energetic and playful. We obtained over two dozen fluke IDs today which I will put up on a separate entry.
