We wrote this informative article about Cruise Ship Shore excursions. Many of you want to swim with the dolphins on your shore excursion, which is possible in many locations. We sell the dolphin shore excursion from Cozumel, Nassau, Puerto Vallarta, Oahu, Tortola-BVI, and Grand Caymen. Also, we offer a pre and post cruise excursion from Fort Lauderdale / Port Everglades and Port of Miami.

There are many shore excursions to choose from and some are easy to purchase on the ship but when it comes to the dolphin swim it is a different story. This program you need to purchase with the cruise ship very early via their website or with Dolphin World website before you start your cruise.

This story starts with….

Within the realm of Florida lie many different exotic and unique cruise lines each demonstrating their capacity to entertain and to transport their passengers in the very best style. Some of the most well known cruise lines are the Carnival, Celebrity Cruise lines, the Cunard, The Disney Cruise line, Holland America, Norwegian Cruise lines, Oceania Cruises, Princess, and of course the Royal Caribbean. Each cruise ship has a certain course and heading that takes it through different domains at differing intervals. < Read More >

You many want to read this story before you take your cruise through the Caribbean, Hawaii or Mexico.

If you have taken a cruise, what has been your favorite shore excursion and why?

Hi All,

I’m glad to tell you that all the Dolphin programs at Grand Cayman includes entrance to the Boatswain’s Turtle Farm.

Free Turtle Farm admission for all swim with the dolphin in Grand Cayman programs’ participants

The entrance for the Turtle Farm is totally free for dolphin program participants, and if you want to enjoy the rest of Boatswain’s park you will just need to pay a $20 upgrade.  Seize your day at one of the Caribbean must-see places, it is worth it!

Boatswain’s Beach Adventure Park hosts the famous Turtle Farm, one of Grand Cayman’s greatest tourist attractions known around the world for its conservation programs, public awareness and entertainment. The Park also offers other incredible adventures like snorkeling to discover a fascinating and colorful marine life, an impressive predator tank for a close and safe encounter with sharks and eels, and an aviary of endemic bird species flying freely in their natural habitat.

The Turtle Farm is located in the West Bay District of Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. To be more accurate is exactly in front of the dolphinarium just crossing the street, about 30 meters. The park’s address is 825 Northwest Point Road which is about 8 miles from George Town.
