To enjoy dolphin swimming
|
・The sea where the dolphins live is around a large bay or an island without
a cove.
・We try to swim in the shadows of the island as much as possible, but it
may still be windy.
I・n order to swim the dolphin safely and comfortably, we recommend preliminary
practice.
・If you can swim smoothly, you can enjoy a lot more to swim with the dolphins.
Also, if you swim with us in advance, we can guide you at ease.
・We apologize for the extra cost and time, but we recommend that you take
part in advance practice.
