Sea Lion encounter

[bm6pm5]

Has anyone done the Sea Lion encounter at Blue Lagoon Island recently?

How long do you get to interact with them?

Also wondering if you do the observer part can you get decent pictures/video of your family or friends actually doing the encounter.

Thanks.

I did it recently - it was fun - since there was only 3 of us in our group - it took about a half an hour.

Sea lion program is not really meant for observers. They are not set up like the dolphins. Your pictures would be the backs of your families head. From an area slightly above and if I remember correctly, an obstructed view.

 

Interaction is about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the number of people in your group.

 

 

Personally, I love this encounter, have done it twice. It's the observer part that isn't so great.

Thanks scuba girl.

One more question for you. Do you know what they charge for pictures as I read on their website that they do not let you bring your own camera to the encounter.

Sorry, can't help you there.. but others may have a clue.

 

There's also a spot on their website for purchaseing photos.. just do a mock sale.. that should give you an idea.

Thanks again did not see that option when looking at the website. I guess I'll have to buy one of theirs as they do not let you take your own camera into the sea lion encounter.
