Meeting a Dolphin
At Dolphin Cove in Tin Can Bay, Queensland.
This child had dropped the tiny fish in the water and his father was explaining that he should have held it just under the water. The dolphins take the fish very gently.
The locals have named these two visiting Dolphins Mystique (male) and Patch (female), members of a pod of frequent Dolphin visitors.
It is a delightful experience to see these wild river/estuarine dolphins willingly coming close to the shore to meet their old friends who host the meeting with these lovely creatures. Every morning around 7-8.30am they can be seen in varying numbers.
The Indo-Pacific Humpback Dolphins have been interacting with residents and visitors of Tin Can Bay for 30 years. It all started with “Scarry” nicknamed due to the numerous rough edges along her dorsal and tail fins. “Scarry” appeared with a young male dolphin, Mystique, believed to be her youngest surviving offspring.
“Scarry” has not been seen since early 2003 but her son Mystique and girlfriend “Patch” still come in to the boat ramp to observe humans and be hand fed.

Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins are referred to as an 'inshore' species as they occur in shallow nearshore waters, often near river mouths, and are rarely sighted more than 1 km offshore. In Moreton Bay they can be found up to 6 km offshore and have also been recorded up to 55 km offshore in the northern Great Barrier Reef where waters are shallow. Their distribution is tropical and subtropical. Key localities in Queensland are Moreton Bay and its adjacent offshore waters, and the Tin Can Inlet of the Great Sandy Strait.
