Alvaro is simply the best! His knowledge is incredible and he is so generous with sharing his expertise. The pelagic trip from Half Moon Bay exceeded all expectations. Saw rarities and got excellent photos.

Fantastic pelagic birding experience with Alvaro. As an author and senior biologist, his insights went far beyond just identifying species. The boat crew was top-notch and professional throughout.
