You can swim with dolphins at various locations in Florida and at Discovery Cove in Orlando. Where did you have in mind?
I'm not sure there are discount tickets to Discovery Cove but their website is http://www.discoverycove.com if that's any help.
There is that place down on Key Largo ( I think) where Eastenders Tamsin Outhwaite did it on the TV and that looked good. I have had good reports about Discovery Cove.but it is not cheap. Everyone I have asked has enjoyed the day and you do get a one week pass to Seaworld thrown in but you only get about half an hour actually with the dolphins and there are quite a lot of you in at once. Was speaking to the family who rented my one house whilst I was in the other in October and they had all done it and it had cost them about £2000 for the whole family. That is a lot of dust!!! When I asked was it worth it they said "well....."

As Michelle is the dolphin fanatic she was the only one of the 3 of us who did the dolphin interaction, at dolphin cove. it's about £99 for non-dolphin and £179 for the dolphin, the rest of the party still get to go snorkelling with the rays and sharks. The meal was really good, it's a buffet type thing but was really nicely presented and tasted great.
Although we didn't do the dolphin swim the trainer allowed us to have a family photo with CJ the dolphin (apparently this is the only one who will beach himself to have pictures taken.
For every 3 people in your party you must have 1 do the interaction. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
I'm not sure if the general public are allowed to the place where Tamsin Outhwaite swam as it is more like a therapy school so I'm not sure it is open generally.
I think it was for the dicovery cove one and someone wanted to know where the best deal in tickets was to be found.
There are no discounts on Discovery Cove. Even if you buy your tickets away from the park. We can get them but iots more of a prestige thing as there is no profit. Book online at discoverycove.com

We found when we went the dates we were on holiday were fully booked already, even several months in advance but as we'd booked our flights through Virign Holidays decided to see if they could get tickets, which they could, as they buy in a certain allocation, so it's worth a try if your dates aren't available direct from DC.
Its gone up by quite a bit $229 for Dolphin swim or $129 without the Dolphin swim.

Dear All,
We intend to do DC in March/April 2003 and as Martin says you cannot get a discount off the listed price on the DC website. I have looked into buying in the US in $ and UK in £ but things all come back to the same price!!
Has everyone who has visited DC had a positive experience? - I would be interested to get dome feedback from visitors as 1 or 2 of our party are not that fussed on the dolphin swim element so might not bother.
