The gorgeous, mottled complexion of the Atlantic spotted dolphin, Stenella frontalis, varies across individuals, and especially age. Born without spots, the distinctive black, white and grey speckles accumulate across their skin as they mature.

10% of profits from your purchase will go directly toward the Bahamas Marine Mammal Research Organisation, to promote conservation of marine mammals and their habitats through scientific research and educational outreach.Long-term studies are critical to monitoring the health and status of marine mammal populations. Since 1991, the Bahamas Marine Mammal Research Organisation (BMMRO) has compiled an unprecedented longitudinal dataset for cetaceans in the region which has become increasingly valuable to inform about the baseline ecology and conservation of some species both locally and globally.
Atlantic spotted dolphin (Stenella frontalis), are the more frequently seen of two different species of spotted dolphins found in the Abacos; the other species is the pan-tropical spotted dolphin (Stenella attenuata). Spotted dolphins are not born with spots, but actually accumulate them as they mature, becoming quite mottled-looking as adults. Hence, young spotted dolphins are often confused with bottlenose dolphins, and sometimes the two species will interact, which adds to the confusion. Spotted dolphins have a more slender snout, and although they can almost reach the same length as bottlenose dolphins, they have a smaller girth and thus body weight. Atlantic spotted dolphins are a year-round resident species in the Abacos. Individuals photo-identified 20 years ago can still be seen ranging along the eastern and southwestern coasts of Abaco. They are commonly seen in groups of 20-50 dolphins in the oceanic waters where they feed on flying fish and squid, and rarely venture on to the bank. However, in the northwestern part of Little Bahama Bank this species can regularly be found along the western edge of the banks during the daytime where they come to rest and socialize.

I want to love these leggings so much. All the good: I do love the fabric as it breathes through yoga classes, I don't want to stop touching my legs as the material is an interesting kind of soft & it's comfortably snug but there's not a lot of compression. The versatility of these leggings are remarkable as you can swim, chill, workout, hike, the list goes on. The pockets on the side are super deep & the pattern camouflages the odd shapes in the pockets. The leggings pass the bend over test where you can't see any kind of undies through the fabric and there's nonexistent or minimal camel toe. I love that the length is customizable; that you can cut them or wear them long over your heels (if you're 5'5" like me). Gosh & I'm obsessed with the Atlantic Spotted Dolphin pattern. I've gotten multiple compliments on the pattern & then it always sparks conversation about the company. I love the overall concept of utilizing recycled plastic bottles & that proceeds go toward a specific marine organization.
The only thing I've found I don't like, which happens to be a large issue in my legging shopping, is these leggings fall down, fold over, & don't stay up at my waist. I'll pull them up as high as I can get them and yet they tend to fall or bunch in the crotch area. Sizing wise, my waist is 27" with a 39" butt #squatbootyprobs & muscular thighs, so based off the sizing guide, I went with a medium. I'm half inclined to order a small to see if they'd stay up better but I'm slightly afraid the integrity of the pattern would be stretched out. I found the sizing to be a bit big, not super baggy but not the compression of that stereotypical little black legging. I hope all that makes sense & that it helps when deciding to get a pair!
I totally love my new leggings from waterlust. I had an issue with a damaged pair and they replaced it immediately. Awesome customer service. I will be buying more of these!
I am in love with these leggings, and are my new go-to. Not only are they super cute, but they are perfect for every activity (running, yoga, swimming, paddle boarding, lounging). The are super comfortable, fit perfectly, stay in place, and are not see-through (which I was worried about with the color). I kept mine long, but I really appreciate being able to customize the length. The color was spot on, and they look amazing. These were my first pair of Waterlust leggings, and I can't wait to order another. My cat even loves them :)
This is the third pair I've bought, and I loved the first 2, the whale shark and nurse shark patterns. They have 3 big pockets, are long enough to cover part of my feet, and dont slide down so you're not constantly pulling them up. This third pair doesn't quite measure up. The fabric quality is the same soft material, and I love the pattern, but they dont have the waistband pocket, only go down to my ankles, and they slide, so I have to keep pulling them up. I dont know if it was an odd batch, but I'm disappointed they're not the same as the first 2 I got.
I ordered these legging as my first purchase with Waterlust. I was a little bit worried about the sizing, but I sent an email to them for advice. I got them and they fit so good. The print is awesome and I love how soft they are. I had to get the matching top afterward. Thank you guys so much, as a marine biologist and scuba instructor, I feel proud to wear your products and share what you guys are doing.
Love these pants. I'm not really at a size to make them look nice but they are comfortable and fun to wear. These are my second ones I have bought. I also feeling a little like a Phoca largha (Spotted seal)!
