You and your group will go in the water together before the dolphins do. You and your group will then be able to get into the water before the dolphins do. Instead of swimming away, they will become curious about you. Because dolphins are wild animals and will be curious about you, you should not try to stimulate their curiosity. This can be explained by people who show no caring and only become interested in someone they're dating. This is how Mom met your dad.

It was wonderful. The captain was great. We were even shown a jelly fish type that doesn't sting. We stopped by a large area with many shells. It was a wonderful time, and everyone will return.
