Dolphin encounter Nassau

[ReggieB]

Can anyone help me with the timing of this excursion? I have tried to post this thread about a million times, but I keep having problems posting a new thread..

Anyhoo. What time do you roughly arrive back at the ship? Do I have plenty of time before my dinner seating at 6pm? Are there several boats that go back from Blue Lagoon, or do you have to wait for your entire excursion group? Thanks for any help.

At last I got the thread started....!!

It takes about 4 hours.

You are on an island and wait until everyone is done, including those on the Dolphin Swim.

Then you wait for the photos they took to get done, while they get you to go thru their gift shop.

Usually you can stay on the water taxi right back to the ship after it stops at the paradise pier first.

We took the 2 p.m. ferry back to the ship and were back by 3:30 or so (give or take 15 minutes) Plenty time to get ready for early seating--which is what we had...We loved this excursion---have a great time!!!

Thanks to both of you. The info is a big help.

When I did the Dolphin Encounter I seem to remember two times for the ferry leaving. There was a 12 pm and 2 pm....if my memory serves me right. I know there were two...just not sure of the time. We took the earlier on back and went shopping in Nassau before getting back on the ship. Hope that helps!

When we were there back in Jan. the ferry ran every 30 min. or so, so we were able to get back to the ship fairly early~!

I'm a bit of an obsessive planner, I know that there aren't many of us about on these boards All the info you've given is great. Big help, thanks.
