While Dolphins travel in pods of up to 15, there seemed to be a lot more in this group.
A pod typically consists of several adult females, calves and adult males. Pods may travel together in herds of several hundred individuals. Dominance or aggression, in the form of a showing of teeth, tail smacking, jaw snapping or head butting, establishes the hierarchy in the pod.
Superpod -Like humans, sometimes they get together in larger groups or ‘herds’ for a while. Occasionally when food is plentiful, dolphins may join together into a ‘super pod’ of over 1,000 dolphins, but that only tends to happen in the deep ocean.
Perhaps an earthquake?
SUPER PODS
Which only happens in deep water if food is very plentiful.
The last super that was spotted, that close to shore was in 2016.
