"swim" with the dolphins
My wife and I went to the park and had a great time, we were down on that end of the island about a year ago. We wanted to swim with the dolphins also, but it was booked up...so we went to watch instead. Here is what you get:
Put on a lifejacket
ok, now squat down here next to the water
now put your hand on the dolphin that just swam up beside you(while we take a picture)
now rub him on the belly (while we take a picture)
ok, now get in the water and when the dolphin swims to you, grab him by the fins and ride out about 15' on his belley (while we take a picture)
Ok, now get back in here, take off that lifejacket and give it to someone else in line.
By the way, we have some great pictures of you if you want to buy some!
Many people were very upset at the amount of money they spent to "swim" with the dolphins when all they did was just pose for a couple of pics and then get dragged by one for a few feet.
Like I said that was a year ago, things may have changed, and perhaps you would be happy with the experience. For us, we were glad it was already booked up, or I would have been one unhappy camper.
