One of my favourite TV series as a kid was Flipper with Jessica Alba. I watched every episode and dreamed about swimming with dolphins and live near the ocean. One year, when seeing a dolphin show at a nearby Zoo, I even decided I wanted to become a dolphin keeper.

There are many places in the world where you can swim with dolphins. Porpoise Bay (Whaka Aihe), on the Caitlin’s Coast on south New Zealand, is one of the better. Here lives the world’s smallest dolphins, the rare Hector Dolphin with their characteristic white and black markings. If I ever travel to Purpose Bay, I’m sure the memory would stay in my mind forever.
