We are heading to the deep for a classic late summer pelagic tour out past the continental shelf. This 18 hr trip travels 80-100 miles offshore to waters 5000-7000 ft deep in search of rare and unique bird and sea life almost never seen from shore. We will motor out all night to reach our destination for dawn where we hope to find storm-petrels (Wilson's, Band-rumped, and possibly Leach's or White-faced), shearwaters (Sargasso, Great, Cory's, Scopoli's), tropical terns (Sooty or Bridled) and pterodroma petrels.We will also be on the lookout for deep-sea whales (Sperm, pilot, Cuvier's, etc), dolphins (Spotted, Risso's, Offshore bottlenose, Striped), sharks and rays (Hammerhead, Blue, Chilean Devil, and Manta) and more.

 



We really never know what we will find out there and we will make every effort to see as much as we can.


This trip will sail on the Thelmadale V a 110 ft charter-boat with two levels to provide plenty of room to move around and a heated cabin in case you need to warm-up. Several guides will be on hand to help find and identify the pelagic species we encounter.

We will make every effort to see as much as we can. The seas offer challenges and rewards, remaining a great frontier still, and one never knows exactly what a day at sea will yield.
