Hi, is snorkelling possible if you are not a great swimmer... i.e. with snorkel or life vest
Hi, it's definitely possible as a life vest is provided, and you can use it when you swim with the dolphins as well as when you snorkel. In addition, a skipper can accompany you in the water if you'd like.
Hi. I am staying at the east coast (belle marre). Is booking available for tomorrow and what will be the charges for 2 people
