kjunea Posted June 25, 2012 #4 Share Posted June 25, 2012 flying fish and dolphins are the most from my balcony. On a sailboat excursion, I've seen sea turtles, dolphins, and more sea life than I can list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltsandknit Posted June 25, 2012 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Whales, sea turtles, sea lions, and a hammer head shark . All on the pacific coast. Only flying fish and dolphins elsewhere Sent from my HTC VLE_U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bougiet Posted June 25, 2012 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Lots of flying fish!! I watch out for them every single cruise and I love it. I actually saw a shark once and that was super cool. I saw a turtle in Belize and refugees once that we rescued during the deck party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okgirl Posted June 25, 2012 #10 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Flying fish, Dolphins, Stingray, a huge jelly fish (when still docked at Galveston) and a capsized boat off of Haiti on fire with 4 people in the Ocean. That was on the Glory and we participated in the rescue, but just about the time we got close enough to launch the rescue vessel, the USCG helicopter showed up and brought them all up in a basket.

gardeningmama Posted June 25, 2012 #11 Share Posted June 25, 2012 When we were in Cozumel a huge sea turtle kept poking the ship. Maybe thought it was mama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowball Posted June 25, 2012 #14 Share Posted June 25, 2012 So far I've seen flying fish and dolphins from the ship, and I am hoping to see whales during our Alaskan cruise next year. I've seen other sea life and various animals when out on excursions - my favorite of which was the monk seal (an endangered species) who was peacefully taking a nap on the beach in Hawaii.

Amadawn1 Posted June 25, 2012 #17 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Killer whales and humpback whales on my Alaska cruises. Note: There were a LOT more visible on my September sailing versus my May sailing. The weather was better in May, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules815 Posted June 25, 2012 #18 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Dolphins, flying fish, turtles, and a hammerhead shark. Also, on our Mexican Riviera cruise in 2009, the morning we woke up in Cabo, we went out to our balcony and there were lots rays jumping up out of the water and splashing down -- like a belly flop. It was the coolest thing; wish I'd taken video. Also on the same cruise we saw whales early in the morning on our last sea day on our way back to LA. That was a bonus -- it was July and we never expected to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoNCruisnFamily Posted June 25, 2012 #19 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Humpback and Killer whales, otters, dolphins, turtles, flying fish, and some other fish I did not recognize (about 3-4 feet long, silvery gray color) on our E.

TriciaEMTB Posted June 25, 2012 #24 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Only thing I saw was a dolphin and that's because I was swimming with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPete Posted June 25, 2012 #25 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Best I've seen were whales in Maui and en route to the Canadian Maritimes. Lots of flying fish, dolphins, and seaweed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
