After we finished a Coastal Tour we started to head offshore. At first it was slow going! We only had 3 dolphins to start with. Capt. Ryan kept pushing on, further and further offshore. None of the other boats had seen a whale. Finally in the binoculars we had some signs of life&#8230; birds and 100+ dolphin. When we arrived we also found two humpback whales! Yahoo! One of them jumped about 100 feet from the boat. A good start!<\/p>\n<p>11:30am- We passed the location of these animals off to Capt. Tom from Dana Point; on our way out for the 11:30am he radioed us to say that he found the whales again. We ended up seeing hundreds of dolphin, three humpback whales and a minke whale! One of the humpback whales made a rare &#8220;lunge feed&#8221; right next to our boat! It was a really great trip with some very close encounters.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-865 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ultimatewhaleadventure.com\/triplog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/humpack-newport-beach-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"humpack-newport-beach\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-866 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ultimatewhaleadventure.com\/triplog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/newport-beach-whale-watching-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"newport-beach-whale-watching\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>9:00am- Calm seas and cloudy skies greeted us this morning, great conditions for finding animals!
