Are you saying that dolphins cause bad weather?While I love seeing dolphins in Cozumel, the down side is frequently there is a port closure soon after due to weather
Local lore is that the dolphins can sense weather coming and migrate south along west side. The times I have seen them in the park typically the weather did get rough the following day or so.Are you saying that dolphins cause bad weather?
Huh.
You learn something new every day....until now, I thought that pirates were the cause of global warming, not dolphins.
This local lore is very likely true. I live in the north and we see the dolphins headed south ahead of NortesLocal lore is that the dolphins can sense weather coming and migrate south along west side.

My first dive after OW was Cozumel and a whole pod came. Seeing large grey objects come towards you out of the abyss was a trip. The more experienced divers started to spin and twirl and the dolphins followed. There were 8 or so. Pretty great experience. The weather was fine for a few more days of that matters, was June.So you're saying that dolphins in the southern dive sites are harbingers of losing dive days? I'd happily pay the price!!! I still haven't seen them in the water (just from the boat - which is also cool).
How wonderful for you!! Newbie luck! I'm going to keep hoping - and if it doesn't happen next trip I guess I'll have to return and hope some more.My first dive after OW was Cozumel and a whole pod came.
