Because we are exploring the dolphins’ natural habitat, it’s always possible that we won’t be able to find where the dolphins are playing today. However, our guides have been doing this for years, and know all the places the dolphins love to be. Virtually all of our tours encounter at least a few of the dolphins that make up the largest population of wild dolphins in the world.
Another fun aspect of jet skiing tours is the curiosity that dolphins have about the jet ski wake.
This tour takes you to the best spots to snorkel around the island and swim with dolphins. As you cruise around these areas, your guide will tell you all you need to know about underwater life.
