Discovery Cove - Non participants.

[donna100]

hi there

Myself and my sister are looking to book for the Dolphin swims in November.
However on the trip will be my mum and nan who are both in wheelchairs.

Is it possible they can come in for the day as i cannot see any ticket which i can buy for them only the non dolphin swim which seems a lot as they
only want to watch for the day and not get involved.

thanks

Hi Donna

I don't think you can get any other ticket other than the non swim option.

You could alway ring DC and ask but as for tickets you will have to get the non swim which is expensive if your mum and nan are not going to use the facilities.

The non swim ticket is the only one they can get. They offer wheelchairs with big wheels that go on the sand and can be pushed in to the ray lagoon and the large warm pool I think. I think they can also do the dolphin interaction in these chairs as they have huge inflatable wheels. They can also do the the wonderful averys. They also get the benifit of the food and drinks so it is worth it.

I agree with uklad23 its a great day and well worth the money.

Is it the fact that they don't want to participate or just think that they can't?

They don't really know what to expect really.

My nan is elderly and just likes people watching all day but my mum always
thinks it is a hassle for everyone to help her which i tell her is not true..

She caught the MRSA bug a few years ago and always uses a wheelchair to get about and she hates it.

I think i will buy the tickets for them if there is stil stuff there which they can do.

Thankyou to everyone for your help. Think i will book this today!!

sounds like it would be a great treat for your mum to get involved in it all, they will be incredibly helpful out there
