Last Tuesday we had a dolphin come visit us at Palancar horseshoe in the shallows at the end of our dive. Single guy popped in about 30 feet from us at about 15'. He / She gave us the classic smile and head bob and then off it went. the report from the boat was there was a small pod.
Not the first time I have seen them but typically I see them from the surface and I am not lucky enough to be in the water with them.
LOL worth a repeat!So long and thanks for all the fish.![]()
Then again there is this
My DM said he had not seen a dolphin in 5 years... I had read a story about a jailbreak on TripAdvisor... Just no confirmation of if it's true. Made me wonder if this was a wild dolphin or an escapee.
