We did it when we stayed at Our Lucaya on Grand Bahama Island.

Re: dolphin swimming

we're looking into doing it in Key Largo for a couple of days before going somewhere else in caribbean (St Martin or Aruba at this point). Have also seen it in Orlando & Bahamas.
here are some sites i've found in my research:
www.dolphinworld.org,
http://www.pennekamp.com/dolphins-plus/nonstruc.htm
www.swimdolphins.com (florida keys)

www.discoverycove.com (orlando)

you can also do a search in Fodors.com, or the like. Good luck!

Re: dolphin swimming

I know Kuaui and The Big Island of Hawaii have it. But they require advance reservations. I didnt do that and I wasnt able to do on our honeymoon.

fyi the The Big Island of Hawaii is at the Dophin Center which is located at/in/near the Hilton Hotel, Waikola Village.

Re: dolphin swimming

I DID IT IN MEXICO AND IT WAS GREAT!! I THINK IT WAS THE CHEAPEST PLACE TO DO IT....I LOVE TO TRAVEL AND THAT WAS WHERE THE BEST PRICE WAS.....I RECEIVED A VIDEO TAPE OF IT AND AN 8x10 PIC OF ME AND THE DOLPHIN KISSING ME....IT'S A GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Re: dolphin swimming

I want to do this sooo bad too (I have a dolphin tattoo, because my dream was to train dophins....didn't happen though).

When we went to the bahamas they had it, and unfortunately for the money, my FH is not into it, but said I could go on my own. I did not want to by myself though.

I think most places have it at this point, it's such a turisty thing to do.
ENJOY IT!!!!!
