HEY ETJer's!

I am looking for any information on pricing for the dolphin encounter at Dolphin Cove in Ocho Rios. I couldnt find pricing on their website!
I'd like to check this out on my April trip. I'm doing an entire trip around the island and think this might be a cool thing to do.
ANY INFO would be GREAT!
TANKS!

My man's neice works close to the Dolphin Experience and we will be getting in touch with her for more info for you. I heard in July when I was in Ochie that it was somewhat of a ripoff because you cannot swim with them as you can in Hawaii. But since I did not go there I reserve my opinion for the place. If not being able to swim with them is not a problem for you I would say that you might want to try it. More lata.

I know this is waaaay late, but I had went to Dolphin's Cove and had a fabulous time.....I took the option of swimming with the dolphins. They really communicate with you, and they allow you to hug them and rub their belly. It was worth every penny, and would advise anybody take dive in with them.

What were the prices like?

I believe the price range was around $150.00 for the swim, not sure how much less for staying on the deck and feeding them.

I just saw an offer from Expedia price being about $89.00 or so.

$90 is way better than $150! that's a little exspensive!! I've always wanted to swim w/ the dolphins too and some day will!

is Ochie the only place in Ja???

Dolphin's Cove in Ochy was the only place I have seen advertise swimming with dolphins. I will let you know if I find out anything else.

I had to laugh at this.

Price a dolphin swim in JA and then one in Orlando. You'll see why we went to Jamaica.

For the price of a bottle of Grey Goose I could arrange shaking hands with a turkey in Orlando
