🐋 Best season we’ve ever recorded. Flat blue 🐋 Best season we’ve ever recorded. Flat blue water, sun for days, and giants showing up like they knew we were watching🐋

Some of you cried. Some of you screamed. One of you dropped a GoPro 😭 Worth it.

But the moment everyone talks about after? When the engine cuts and the whole boat goes silent. You don’t forget that one.

Without them, there’s no us 🌊

Today was a magical day 🐢 We received the call Today was a magical day 🐢
We received the call from @okeam_seaturtle to release 2 loggerhead turtles that were under their care. For us it was a privilege. When we started our partnership we knew this meant not only taking data of this animals but to become actual advocates of their conservation. We were involved in the SummerShield workshop lead by @camiconciencia because we will always give back to the ocean, the amazing environment that has given us (and gives us) so much! Today our crew released turtles but took home this memories forever. Lucky day for everyone 🤞🏻🌈

Talk about magical encounters 🥹 This was TODAY Talk about magical encounters 🥹 This was TODAY on board Blue Safari.

Sperm whales are the largest of the toothed whales and the only toothed whale considered a “great whale.” Right here in Madeira, they were hunted for over 40 years. It’s hard to believe we almost pushed them to extinction… and yet, after all this time, they’ve come back. Sort of forgiving us. Giving us another chance 🐋

Here’s the thing: we’ve driven animals to extinction but we’ve also brought them back. We’re all in this together. Conservation is teamwork 🤝

Who else needs this reminder today? 👇

SPECIAL SIGHTING 💙🐢 Today the ocean gave us SPECIAL SIGHTING 💙🐢 Today the ocean gave us a gift: a LEATHERBACK TURTLE (Dermochelys coriacea) swimming in Madeiran waters! 🌊

Did you know?
🔹 It’s the largest sea turtle on Earth!!! up to 2 metres and 600 kg
🔹 It has no hard shell, just leathery skin over flexible bone
🔹 It can dive over 1,000 m deep 🤯deeper than most whales!
🔹 Its favourite food? Jellyfish 🪼 which is why plastic bags are one of its biggest threats

Leatherbacks travel thousands of kilometres across the Atlantic, and every sighting here is a reminder of how connected our ocean is and how much these ancient travellers need our protection. 🌍

👉 Want to help? Start by learning! Knowing these animals is the first step to protecting them 📣 And speaking of learning: Blue Safari Madeira will be at the SUMMER SHIELD workshop on June 15th at Tecnopolo, organised by @mare_madeira youth Embassadors, dedicated to sea turtle conservation and good practices at sea. Come join us! 💪🌊

Planning a Whale Watching in Madeira? 🌊🐋 Th Planning a Whale Watching in Madeira? 🌊🐋

The winter season brings incredible sightings, but the ocean can be unpredictable! ⛈️ To make sure you have the best experience, here are 3 essential tips:

1️⃣ Book Early! 📅 Secure your spot for the start of your trip so we have plenty of time to reschedule if conditions change! 2️⃣ Wear Layers! 🧥 Weather can change quickly at sea. We recommend layers to stay comfortable, and we’ll provide ponchos if it rains! 3️⃣ Be Present! ✨ Nature doesn’t follow a script. Whether conditions are “perfect” or not, the wild always finds a way to surprise us. Enjoy the ride!
