Swimming With Dolphins In Hawaii

Swimming with dolphins in Hawaii is a lifelong dream for many travelers.


Hawaii is still the number one destination in the world for those seeking paradise. With a lush, rich environment and a booming tourist industry, Hawaii welcomes visitors from all around the world to its island shores. Swimming with dolphins in Hawaii is one of the most popular activities for tourists. In this island paradise, interacting with one of the most beloved marine animals is a once in a lifetime dream.


Instructions


1. Book your air ticket to Honolulu, on the island of Oahu. If your final destination is another island, you will usually transfer to an inter-island flight at Honolulu airport.


2. Go to the official site for Hawaii's largest marine animal park, Sea Life Park, at sealifeparkhawaii.com (see Resource). Go to "Activities" and select "Dolphin Swim Adventure."


3. Read through the information and sign up to reserve your spot for swimming with trained dolphins. You can experience riding on their fins, enjoying a belly ride and receiving a dolphin kiss.


4. Go to the Ko'Olina Ocean Adventures website at koolinaoceanadventures.com (see Resources) if you are interested in swimming with wild dolphins on Oahu. This tour includes a guaranteed swim alongside wild dolphins, whales, sea turtles, and other natural marine life. Read through their tour information and reserve your spot online.


5. Go to the Dolphin Journeys website at dolphinjourneys.com if you are headed to the Kailua-Kona region on the island of Hawaii. Besides snorkeling with wild dolphins, they also offer a combo tour for whale watching during certain times of the year. Download their brochure and contact them via their online contact form or by calling to make a reservation.


6. Be aware that other islands, such as Maui, Kauai and Lanai, do not offer organized dolphin swims or tours. There is a possibility you may see some wild dolphins if you go on a scenic boat ride, but there is no guarantee. The Hawaii tourism board recommends you to either visit the Big Island of Hawaii or the island of Oahu if you want to organize a swim with dolphins.
