Bimini Dolphins

July 6, 2014

I was so lucky this June to spend two spectacular weeks in Bimini swimming with wild dolphins. What a treat! As usual, participants came from around the world to learn telepathic communication with animals and nature, and to spend time with the dolphins. I always love how these human pods come together and the lifelong friendships that are formed.

Bimini is such an interesting place. The north island where we stay is only three miles long and a block wide. It has about 1400 residents who subsist mainly by fishing and harvesting conch. The conch shells are piled high all along the shore. On the far north end a new resort is being built. I hope it doesn’t change the island too much.

I have never seen such beautiful water anywhere else in the world. You find every shade of blue from light turquoise to deep cobalt in one afternoon.

Bottlenose dolphins

We were treated to swims with both Atlantic Spotted dolphins and Atlantic Bottlenose this year. On one encounter male bottlenose were mating with female spotted! That was an interesting afternoon, and although the dolphins were engaged in their own socialization, they were not bothered by our presence. In fact they kept coming back to where we were hanging in the water. We also enjoyed many baby dolphins leaping at the bow. I swear they were trying to see how much they could get us to scream and holler!

The second week in Bimini I was teaching Communication with Nature, and we got a little more nature than we had hoped for. There was

wind and rain and lightening and it got so cold on the boat one day that we jumped in the water to warm up. That was an amazing experience
watching the raindrops hit the surface from below and above. It was like sparkling little gems on the sea. We floated in the current until the storm went by and enjoyed a free ride watching the coral reefs and fish go by below us.

I’m already looking forward to my two weeks in Bimini next year, June 7-13, and June 14-20. Registration will begin in September, and it filled up early this year, so if you’d like to join me, don’t wait too long. I think both weeks next year will be Animal Communication – we seemed to call in too much wild nature this year.
