A group of tourists aboard a catamaran in front of the “Mr. Sancho” off the coast of Cozumel, was surprised by a dolphin that was swimming next to them and that, unexpectedly, jumped and landed briefly on the boat, before quickly returning to the sea.
The unusual incident, which occurred a few days ago, was captured on video by one of the tourists, who then shared the images on social networks, where they quickly went viral.
In the video, you can see the dolphin swimming next to the catamaran and the moment he jumps, landing on a part of the hull of the boat, very close to a tourist.
The video generated debate among Internet users: some highlighted the interaction of the mammal with the sailors, while others expressed concern about the possible damage caused to the dolphin after the impact with the catamaran.
In Cozumel, it is common to see dolphins swimming near the coast or accompanying boats, which is a natural attraction for both visitors and locals.
