The last pink dolphins.
When Simon
Holliday jumped into the water to swim from Hong Kong to Macau on 24 May 2014,
he was feeling anything but ready. He certainly didn’t know this 5:30 am swim
would break a world record; nor did he think it would attract an unlikely swarm
of spectators.View image of Simon Holliday swims from Hong Kong to Macau for water conservation awareness

four hours into the 35km, 10:20:30 journey – part of the Clean
Cross Swim to
raise money for the Ocean Recovery
Alliance’s antipollution
initiative – open-water swimmer Holliday
was approaching the mouth of the Pearl River Delta when his support paddler,
Shu Pu, started yelling. There were endangered pink dolphins everywhere, as if they had signed up to join the
race. “I have been in Hong Kong,
paddling around the islands for seven years, and have never encountered a pink
dolphin on my own,” Pu said.

It wasn’t just one
or two dolphins either – there were about 25 to 30 following the crew and
diving on every side. “They stuck with us for more than an hour and came really
close, probably 3m from me, jumping and crossing in front of my canoe,” Pu
added. “We actually exchanged looks at one point, kind of acknowledging each
other.” The crew encountered another group of Chinese white dolphins – which
are often called pink dolphins for their rosy hue – as Holliday closed in on
Macau, as if they were rooting for him to cross the finish line. “I didn’t
actually know they were there until the crew told me,” Holliday said. “And then
I was thinking, well the sun is out, the dolphins are following along, and I
might just finish this thing. It was a really great omen.”
