DC again!!!!

[cazaline]

I know there are lots of threads on here re DC but has anyone got any good tips re this place ie best time to swim/eat/get photos/ go to different areas etc. also am i right in believing that all snacks drinks etc are free as on our tickets it says they are available at a surcharge (got tickets 1 week ago) Thanks;)

Yes everything is now all inclusive, croissant / pastries for breakfast with oj and coffee as well as lunch and snacks and drinks from around the park. personally i would go for a swim around 11 oclock as that give you time to get in eat brekkie if you want, get your locker/snorkels/wet suits and find a lounger or have a swim before hand once you've done your swim the place is yours to relax in swim in do what ever you want in whereas if you had a swim at 2/3pm you'd spend the day clock watching for you swim time. We've been several times and had a swim at 10:30/11 both times. one things guaranteed though, you'll have a great time

You don't need to worry about any one time being too busy to do something, it doesn't get crowded at DC with the limits on entry, even at mealtimes you don't have to queue for long!
If you do want a morning dolphin swim though, be aware that the times for this are allocated on arrival, so those who arrive first get the pick of the time slots.
I'd get there early anyway, to make the most of your day!
You view the photos/video straight after the swim but don't need to collect them until later. We were advised not to leave this until the very last minute as this is what most people do and there might be queues then.
Have a fantastic time, you'll never forget it.
