Sailing back from anegada with little kids. Headed direct to Jost. Two big and one little dolphin swimming our bow and jumping out of the water. Wow!

Excellent. We got to enjoy that same treat in 2014. The parents were as interested in us as we were in them. Its fun to see them roll to their side so that they can see us.

Cheers, RickG

We see dolphins on every sail. Even swam with them in Cane Garden Bay on a few occasions. By the way IMHO that is the only place you should swim with dolphins--in the wild.

Why is that the only place you should swim with them in the wild? Do they go to CGB for relaxation and they are in a better mood?

100% agree..beautiful creatures that suffer terribly in captivity..and even more when they are netted and injured..and have you seen the state of the water at the "dolphin prison" in town? Not my idea of fun to dive into dolphin sh&t.. Love seeing them in the wild..one played with us in the Bight a few years ago..amazing..nuzzling kids..rolling over..
