bunch of shops and restaurants that we explored.\u00a0 They also offered dolphin cruises.\u00a0 We&#8217;ve seen dolphins from the shore pretty much every time we&#8217;ve gone to the beach, but we thought this might be a way to get an up close look at them.\u00a0 We headed out towards the open water but were told that we wouldn&#8217;t be going all the way out because it was pretty rough.\u00a0 We didn&#8217;t see anything at the mouth of the harbor so the captain took us back into the bay.\u00a0 I thought that we might be out of luck, but I guess the guy knew what he was doing.\u00a0 We saw a group of about ten in the distance and a group of three came very close to the boat.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-235 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure
