I am always happy to see Dolphins. Since childhood, I often looked at them from a boat or sometimes even from the shore. But under water for the first time I saw them quite recently, in December last year, when we were on dive safari in Egypt.
We, of course, wanted to see them, but were not sure that this would happen - no one can guarantee. Even in those places where divers see them often, it happens not every time. In any case, in the first day of safari program, the first dive was scheduled for a dive site with a promising name Dolphin House, near Hurghada.
Full anticipation, we dived. Time went, we went on the dive route for our dive guide, looked around, but the dolphins did not appear. I was slightly disappointed... But, as you can guess, looking at these photos, the dolphins still came! :)
At the end of the dive, when we have already returned to our ship and gathered to ascend, someone from the group saw them a little in the distance, and everyone immediately swam in their direction. And the dolphins did not disappoint us - they swam with us and around us for a few minutes, posed to all people with the camera. It was just super!
It's better to watch the photo in high resolution.
