There are two WhatsApp conversation groups for yachts transiting the Spanish/Portuguese Atlantic coast.
One of the groups is for sharing the location of orcas only, and the other is a discussion group to exchange experiences and mitigation actions to avoid an incident with the orcas etc.
The groups now have more than 500 members and are very active with many yachts transiting the coast reporting on their route taken, and if orcas have been sighted or not.
Go to https://www.orcas.pt for more information.
Can I follow this group please?
Hi Marcel – these groups are now Telegram groups due to increase in size. See this page for more details of resources for finding out about orcas and their locations on the Atlantic coast – https://www.noonsite.com/cruising-resources/orcas-and-yachts/
