Freedivers only
This trip is built around freediving with wild dolphins — good swimmers who want to get in the water and follow them, not watch from the boat. We respect the dolphins' pace: if it's too wavy, windy, or they're in deep water, we don't force it. Not 100% guaranteed, but we look for them and do our best.
