11 March 2014 | Chacala to Ensenada Matanchen, San Blas
What a trip it was. I saw humpback whales breaching and slamming on to their backs at least 20 times. I got a few times in video also. They are very plentiful around here. I have even seen the babies learning to do it. To see the adults come up out of the water, and have ½ or more of their bodies out, and then slam down on their backs is awesome. The small noses of the young ones as they come out of the water are an awesome sight too. Anchoring in Ensenada de Matanchen I only put out the bow anchor and flopper stopper. I may regret not putting out the stern anchor as I plan to be here a few days. If I need to, I can do it easily from the dingy, tomorrow…
