We were fortunate to encounter common dolphins, fin whales, and the largest known animal ever to have lived, the blue whale. The krill were near the surface. Thus, the whales stayed near the surface. This image shows how close the encounters were. Only a little portion of the whale is above the surface.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_whale for more information.
Our trip originated out of Dana Point and headed north.
