Freediving with a dolphin: a video




Last year in Sept while freediving at Lady Elliot Island, I chanced upon a lone dolphin. I ended up spending an interesting 40 mins watching him (it was probably a male, as females are usually with a pod) chase some big-eyed trevally around much like the way a cat plays with a mice... seemingly for the sheer fun of it. What an encounter! He didn't seem bothered by my presence. In fact, I think he rather enjoyed showing off some of his jumps!

Thankfully, I had a camera with me so here's some footage I put together:

Enjoy!
