In the Azores, the spring months can be a rough time of the year, making whale watching very challenging. But occasionally you get lucky with conditions. These are the best days because the spring is the best time of the year to see the largest number of species. Baleen whales such as fin whales, blue whales and sei whales migrate past in large numbers, and at this time we also see the arrival of tens of thousands of Cory's shearwaters that breed on the volcanic islands.
