Hi!
I wonder if someone could tell me what we need to take to DC for the day? Am I right in thinking that we need to take our own beach/surf shoes? I don't want to either leave anything behind, or take a whole heap of stuff we don't need!!
Thanks!!:wave:

They supply nearly everything, take some sandals, though you won't be able to wear these in the dolphin bit, they give you some special ones if you need them.

Just take what you would take to the beech, but remember they have towels
and you must use their own sunscreens, swimming goggles flotation devices etc.

yes you will need something on your feet because of the rocks so swim shoes are ideal but do not worry you can buy them there they also have mock crocs for £7 - i got a lovely baby blue pair!!

We took our swimming costumes and that was all. We were allowed to wear "swim shoes" which we bought from Walmart for about £7 a pair. they are made of the same material as a wetsuit and fit close on your feet. We wore these during our dolphin swim with no problems whatwoever. You can also wear your snorkel mask and glassess if youw atn as the trainer said that the dolphins were used to these things.
You do not need anything else - everything is provided as is unlimited food and drink.
It was the best day of our holiday - we would recommend it and we will be going again next time!

Also, remember that no jewellery is allowed at all when you do your dolphin swim except a wedding band and a watch. Earrings, necklaces etc muct be removed - so my advice is do not take them at all. They do provide lockers free of charge but if you forget to take jewellery off, it can be a long trek back to yours to stow it safely.

What about an engagement ring? Can you wear that? My wedding ring looks more like an engagement ring as it has a stone. Thanks for any help....
