The Original Dolphin Watch (American Diving Co.)

The "Original" Dolphin Watch sailing
from the Sea Ranch Marina on South Padre Island, Tx.
The boat "Double Sun" pictured below.
We had an added bonus on this trip as the Sea Turtle
rescue people were on board to release 4 turtles
back into the bay that were rescued from the cold
a few weeks earlier.


Holding one ready to release. Really neat to see up close.

Heading to the lower deck for release.



There he goes!!!!

Another swimming away from the boat.
A Shrimp boat passed by headed out to sea.

Up close look at the dredging operation.
And then Dolphins. The weather was perfect and
there were Dolphins everywhere.
All around on every side of the boat.




Beautiful to watch! They put on a great show!

All on board had a great time on this perfect 80 degree
day and no wind. We saw the Sea turtles up close and
personal and watch them being released back into the bay.
We seemed to be in a very large Pod of Dolphins and they were
very active. A fantastic trip!!!!
THIS TRIP IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
