We went to Tin Can Bay to feed a wild bottle-nose dolphin. We got there at half seven in the morning and there he was. We actually went into the water to feed him. He swam straight up to you and took the fish out of your hand. All donations made from this help protect the dolphins. They feed them every morning but they will only ever get given 1/10 of the fish they would normally have in a day so if this activity ever had to stop the dolphins would not be affected. They have been coming into the bay for years, but this one in particular had so many scars. A year back he was attacked by bull sharks and came into the bay for help. He rested there for ten days and luckily survived.
Hervey Bay was a lovely little place, with a gorgeous beach where you can walk out to sea for ages and it is still only up to your knees. It was lovely and so peaceful, we were the only ones there for most of the time.
