Swimming with Dolphins - Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins

Hawaii Oceanic guests on our "Dolphin Dreaming" charter tour found Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins playing with a jellyfish!

 

The dolphins were taking turns biting the jellyfish and then rubbing it around their pectoral fins and tail flukes. 

 

The dolphins played with the jellyfish for several minutes while our guests who were snorkeling with the dolphins watched. 

 

First time we've seen dolphin play with a jellyfish in that manner.

Snorkel with Whale Sharks in Hawaii

Captain Jason and the guests aboard Hawaii Oceanic's charter boat, the Pueo Kai enjoyed a rare encounter with a whale shark.

The whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is the largest fish in the world!

Hawaii Oceanic guests saw the whale shark offshore during the Dolphin Dreaming charter boat tour Saturday May 16th, 2015.

Fish like this whale shark remind us of how incredible the ocean is!
