Rare Keith1010 Posted September 4, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 4, 2017 You might get some feedback here but you might also want to visit the ports of call boards for each port to see what other have said about swimming with dolphins in those areas.

6rugrats Posted September 4, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 4, 2017 None of them. Don't book an exclusion where you "swim" with confined dolphins. It's cruel to them, and can be dangerous. https://www.thedodo.com/swim-dolphins-caribbean-1094674999.html?utm_source=HuffPo http://us.whales.org/issues/swimming-with-dolphins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudoware Posted September 4, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 4, 2017 If you care at all about dolphins, don't patronize these abusive programs. https://www.thedodo.com/swim-dolphins-caribbean-1094674999.html Sent from my SM-G950U1 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about swimming with them in the open ocean - if they decide that they want to swim with you. DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DON I posted this is response to an earlier dolphin question - "Dolphins are very intelligent marine mammals. Did you ever think about whether they are given a choice as to whether they want to swim with you or if given a chance leave their watery cages and swim in the ocean with their family pods. I doubt that you have. Imagine a very intelligent extraterrestrial civilization that comes to the earth to capture human specimens that they take back home to wherever they live. They keep the humans in cages so that tourists can stare at them and the really lucky ones get to go into the human cages so that the humans can be forced to do tricks and play with them. Do you think that you would enjoy that. That is exactly what we are doing to the captive dolphins. " DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strophic Posted September 5, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I do not support keeping cetaceans in captivity and would not recommend swimming with captive dolphins at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
