Join us as we explore the deep offshore waters up to and possibly beyond the edge of the Continental Shelf and the Hudson Canyon waters. This ultra deep trip coincides with pelagic migration.

Likely bird sightings for this time of year include Black-capped Petrel, Cory’s, Great and Audubon’s Shearwaters, Band-rumped, Leach’s, White-faced, and Wilson’s Storm-Petrels, Long-tailed Jaeger, Bridled Tern, and Red-necked Phalarope. Other rarities we have found in our region during the summer months include, Trindade (formerly Herald) and Fea’s Petrel, Masked Booby, and South Polar Skua.

We may also find interesting marine mammals like Cuvier’s Beaked Whale, several species of Mesoplodon Beaked Whales, Striped Atlantic Spotted, Offshore Bottlenose, and Risso’s Dolphin, and Short-finned Pilot Whales. As we come back in through the shallower zone we could also find Fin, Humpback, or Minke Whales.

There has been recent reports of Right Whales, Sei Whales, and a Blue Whale offshore.
