dolphin encounter

[mfoz1]

has anyone got any tips on either the Dolphin in Depth at Epcot or the Marine mammal keeper experience at Seaworld? Are they worth doing and if so which one? I have a DD who is 16 (and has just passed all her GCSE's) so someone would have to go with her at Epcot but not at Seaworld. We are due to be at WDW in October so really need to get this sorted quite quickly.

I don't know - you might try posting on the Sea World board also

Some of us did Dolphins in Depth at Epcot on one fo our trips dow to the world. We all enjoyed it, though there is not a lot of time in the water with the dolphins. You do not get to swim with them, you are in the water and get to do signals which they respond to and you hold them in your arms, which is an incredible feeling! You get a t-shirt and a video of the entire encounter in the water. There is a lot of information about conservation and dolphins in the wild. Definitely worth the time spent. You go in early, around 8 or 9am and you finish around 1pm. I think the Seaworld encounter allows you to actually swim with the dolphins, but you would need to check the Seaworld board for more information on that one.
