One of the best dolphin encounters is when baby dolphins (or calves) are included in the pod. Over the years I've been lucky to encounter many baby dolphins, including the tiniest ones that were still wrinkled and had their dorsal fin folded over from being in the womb. They are absolutely adorable, and a delight to watch clumsily leaping alongside their mother.
