After we booked a sailing tour and went back to the beach for the second feeding. Now there were less people and it proceeded in the same pattern. It was very interesting to see dolphins as close as one meter. This time about ten animals came to the beach, there was even a mother giving milk to her calf. Then we the sailing tour started.
