My favorite memory (Barrett)


My favorite part of this vacation was going on the Lana’i Dolphin Adventure. It started out with snorkeling at two different locations near the island of Lana’i. The fish were cool! Then we got on the boat that we were snorkeling from and headed out to find some dolphins!

There are three kinds of dolphins in Maui. The first kind we saw was the spotted dolphins. If you’re talking about size, the spotted dolphins are in the middle. These dolphins can jump six feet out of the water (Zack think it’s ten feet). They played right along and under the boat.

The second species we saw were the bottle nose dolphins. They are probably the most common species of dolphins. They are also the biggest kind of dolphins (in Maui), six to eight feet long!! It was cool when they came close to the boat.

We actually saw all three kinds of dolphins. The last were the spinners. They are the smallest species of dolphins (in Maui). One of them when they jumped out of the water did a roll in the air!! It was cool! And boy, they are fast!!
