Wild Dolphins at my feet!More Photos
This is a 1.5 hour tour by boat out into the Bay of Gibraltar to see the wild dolphins that are resident in the area. We were amazed to find that these highly intelligent and graceful mammals approached the boat of thier own accord simply to investigate and to 'surf' in the waves that a moving boat makes. It took about 15 minutes to find them and there must have been 50 or more that were apparently feeding so very lively. They were spalshing so close to the boat that we even got wet. The girl that done the comentary said that dolphins see in black and white but recognise yellow and red, as this boat was yellow that was one of the reasons that they were attracted to it! I checked that out in a book and it is true! Wow! Generally a very good tour suitable for all the family. One woman cried when she got her first glimpse of a dolphin and the kids go bananas.
