This is the most amazing, surreal experience. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, went above in beyond. They are respectful of dolphins and the swimmers. It was even better than expected. I did 4 swims. It was an emotional day, and I just can?t describe the feeling of having those wild, magnificient and friendly creature interacting with us on their own free will. It was worth every penny, a once in a lifetime experience, although I hope to be back someday!!
