*I am interested in swimming with the dolphins while in the USVI. What options are available?

You must go over to Tortola, BVI to do that (passport or BC, w/ DL req.'d). Prospect Reef Resort. Unless you happen to see some while out boating. That's happened to me a few times since I've lived here. The wild ones are curious, but not as friendly as the ones at Prospect Reef. I think I enjoyed the wild ones more, though. Just felt more 'special', ya know?

Keri,
You may want to read this: http://www.dolphinproject.org/?pageid=21315
before swimming with the dolphins in Tortola (or anywhere else for that matter). By the way, Prospect Reef Resort is going out of business.

Thanks for posting this. I have always been opposed to captive Dophin programs, but now I also have some facts to bolster my opinion.
