Dolphins and warm weather

Finally a break in the cooler weather and we were up in the high 70's.  We decided to take our Marina's Estero Bay tour.  Since the bulk of this bay is less than 3ft deep, TIKA would not be a great platform to go manatee and dolphin hunting.  We had a great time and saw many dolphins, but no manatees.  The water temperature is around 60, so the manatees are somewhere in warmer water.
Fish Tale Marina's entrance is between the two tall condo buildings.  It sets back on a canal about 1/4 mile. The Marina is off of Estero Bay on Etstero Island directly across from the city of Estero.        Got it?
Mother and baby dolphin came right up alongside our boat to check us out.  Over 80 dolphins make Estero Bay their year round home.
