More from Flipper

Well he is back and at his his usual playful self, as our resident dolphin un-aptly named Flipper, keeps swinging, er swimming by, to say Ahoy! He has been hanging ace out off Umtentweni and Port Shepstone for a number of years now. Actually not completely alone, there is also a Skua Bird that seems to like the same neighbourhood?! Flipper comes and goes with the seasons and the sardines, but when he is around, we can have a chat every day we launch.

Flipper (sorry!) loves to hang out and even get a free feed. he knows we have juicy fresh jube-jube mackerel in our live well and can be quite insistent. He is so tame he will eat from your hand! Jumping in with him on a clean day, he really gets interactive…chatting and clicking and squeaking away.

Now we just need to teach him to take us to the fish!
