Das "Schwimmen" mit den Delphinen war ein einzigartiges, unvergessenes Erlebnis. Allerdings hätte ich mir im Vorfeld mehr Informationen zum Verlauf des Ausflugs gewünscht. Ich hatte den Ausflug alleine gebucht und wurde alleine nur von dem Busfahrer zu der Delphinstation gefahren. Dort wurde ich abgesetzt mit der Information wann ich wieder abgeholt werde und musste mich alleine zurechtfinden. Die Katamaranfahrt mit Schnorcheln in einer sehr schönen Bucht hat meinen Ausflug abgerundet.

Overall an amazing day for me and the kids. Staff were really helpful, and the guides were super fun throughout the day. Was really relaxing and the extra Manatee feeding we added on top was well worth it. We Enjoyed every moment. What a lovely place X

Sadly, we didn't get to do the catamaran due to high winds, but we were not offered any alternative or refund. Apart from that, it was a fantastic experience for my family and me. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
