A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Tursiops aduncus
A community of dolphins surfing for the pure fun of it. These beautiful mammals were catching and re-catching waves in groups, sometimes with their faces out of the wall, for at least an hour.
Oceania
At the same time and from the same location we could see 3 mantas, 2 large sharks, several turtles and breaching Humpback whales all at the same time. Didn't know which way to look.

It was an incredible day Sean even though my brother told me it was fairly normal to see such stuff !! I almost decided to move permanently to SE Qld that day. I really wished I had one of those super long lens cameras that you guys have :-) Maybe soon...
Beautiful, that must have been an amazing spotting!
:-)
We were up on a 20 metre cliff asergio...:) ...they are to well fed to bother with chewy humans anyway.
For a moment I wished I was there, but when you mentioned sharks... maybe another day!
What a wonderful sight. Thanks for sharing it; I'm a long way from dolphins!
So right karenl ... it made me want to hold my breathe unless it all went away.
It's a really special place on the oceanic freeway down the east coast of Australia.
That must have been an awesome sight to see!
