Chasing dinner.

This was definitely cool. The guide was explaining how dolphins will swim in a circle near shore to gather the fish,
since they eat about a third of their weight each day.
It's like a herding activity and does create lots of racket and splashing.
We saw it happen a couple of times on this trip.

Sometimes a fish will "get away" and the dolphin will chase it and have fun. Here's one that almost got away.
