At first, we didn’t really pay much attention to it, but after zooming in with my telephoto, I told Katie that I did not see a boat, and she quickly turned the plane to go check it out.

Hundreds and hundreds of them swimming in unison quite quickly headed up north towards Espiritu Santo Island.

Oh my god! What an experience! It is so obvious that the staff love their job and enjoy sharing this experience with their guests. Even the captain is completely accessible and interacts with the group. He even put out a parade with the dolphins at the end of the day.  We were reminded multiple times […]
