Freediving with Dolphins

Dolphins in Dahab

We were at Light House today to do some freediving with some students who were finishing a courses, and at the end of it all we spent the better part of the morning freediving with two beautiful Dolphins.  There was a mama Dolphin with a baby swimming on the far side of the bay.  We saw them from a distance at first, but then I decided to take my mask and snorkel and run over to the bridge where we had seen them.  Sure enough the first 10 minutes nothing, but then Wendy, who had also come down to the bridge, spotted them below us.  What an amazing site!  These two beautiful animals just swam around us seemingly undisturbed by the growing crowd.  We spent quite a while with them in the water.  To be honest, I could have spent the whole day there.  I’d have to say that this was one of the best days I’ve ever had freediving at the Light Houses.  Below is a picture of the same situation somewhere not in Dahab.  They are the same dolphins though.  Unfortunately this was the one day we didn’t have a camera with us.
