Dolphin tour - Boat trip to see dolphins was a lot of fun !!! Besides seeing dolphins they put a dredge in the water and drag the bottom for a bit then bring the net back in !!! There were stingrays,puffer fish,blue crab,catfish, squid !!!! Plus a couple other fish as well.We were able to hold and touch the things caught in the net !!! It was pretty cool. The workers were friendly too !!
