On our fourth day aboard National Geographic Sea Bird, we awoke in Lopez Mateos town and early in the morning we headed out to Boca de Soledad to look for gray whales. On our way, our local pangueros stopped for us to see some bottlenose dolphins and beautiful birds on top of the mangroves. Cormorants, white ibis, frigates, and white pelicans were easily seen, so our guests could take pictures and appreciate them. At one point we even saw a coyote!

After cruising, the firsts spouts were seen. The whales were scattered and enjoying the surf of the sandbars at the entrance of the lagoon. It was wonderful watching them.

In the evening, after cruising the Hull Canal, we made it to the bay side of Sand Dollar Beach where guests enjoyed a sunset walk along the dunes.
