As a strong, multiday windstorm advances on Monterey, Captain Rod was quick to find a large concentration of some 8 or 9 humpback whales, and not too far from Monterey Harbor. While our morning trip enjoyed the appearance of a small pod of Risso’s Dolphin, the afternoon trip was pressed to acquire the humpbacks as rising winds made for sloppy seas. Luckily, the wind held back just enough for us to get the second trip in. Looks like we’ll have the next few days off while the storm blows over. See you all again soon!
