Thread: What ports offer swim with dolphins. Any islands with monkeys?

What ports offer swim with dolphins. Any islands with monkeys? My wife loves monkeys and would like to see some. Also she wants to do the swim with dolphins. How much does it cost per person most of the time? Thanks
Steve

we are doing the one in tortola, it cost anywhere from 130.00 to 160.00 depending on the level of contact with the dolphins you want.

You can see Monkeys on Roatan Island...

St. Kitts has monkeys swinging freely in trees on some parts of the island! Some locals keep them as pets. It's not unusual to see one sitting on a shoulder wearing those small "puppy diapers".

For a bit of a closer encouner (location wise) with dolphins ... Going out on a boat on the South Carolina coast is normally a good place to see dolphins. They are very friendly acting but we are warned not to get out of the boat when dolphins are around ....

Yes St.Kitts is the place for monkeys

Jamaica's Dolphin Cove is an AWESOME setting for swimming with the dolphins. My wife and I have travelled all over the world and the combined Dunns River Falls and Dolphin Cove swim excursion we took in Jamaica is one of our favorite things we've seen or done anywhere.

Another place to have a dolphin encounter is in Cozumel, at Chankanaab (sp) park. I believe the prices are pretty comparable, no matter where you do it.

If you want to have a up-close and personal experience with monkeys, check out this website:

Victor Bodden - Bodden Tours - Roatan Tours and Roatan Excursions - Roatan Honduras

He offers a personalized tour of Roatan, which includes a stop at a place called Monkey Business (I believe he owns and operates this establishment). I have heard and seen pictures of people totally interacting with the spider monkeys. It seems like a great experience, especially if you love monkeys.

You can also see monkeys on Dominica.

As for dolphins, our encounter was in the Bahamas. An excellent experience.

Many places are opening up Dolphin encounters and swims. On our recent cruise both Grand Caymen and Jamaica offered dolphin swims. Ditto for Cozumel.

We saw the monkeys on Roatan. A few monkeys in a cage. Nothing to get excited about.
