Here's the deal: you get taken on an honest-to-goodness ocean swim with the wild ocean dolphins. You are taken there by marine biologists, who know a ton about all marine animals. They teach you how to behave, explain the behavior of dolphins, and other animals. In short, it's great!
Now, you're not guaranteed to see the dolphins - the morning (after they let you snorkel in the ocean for a bit, to make sure everyone is comfortable with the experience) starts with trying to find them. Our boat went to the ve-e-ery tip of the island in the search! Once you find them, you have to hope they are in 'milling behaviou' (i.e. half-asleep, just chilling during the day - they are nocturnal, and hunt at night away from the shore). Well, even if they are in the lazy mood, you have to swim with all your might to keep up :) Our swim ended in 5 minutes - they left us wa-a-ay behind, and I was sure I was a darn good swimmer!
But, we also saw ocean turtles nose-to-nose (they are curious about snorkelers), and even a whale shark (this one milled under our sailboat for a bit, guess it was curious too). All in all, a wonderful experience, even if I found out dolphins can outswim me in their sleep!
