I wonder if this is to Dolphins like diving is to humans :).

We were so lucky to be a part of this trip with Reef.org and Jonathan who shared all of his beautiful photos with us.
The Dolphins made this magical performance for us. They look into your eyes and say take care of the water for us.
We swam with Whale Sharks what a wonderful experience
