DC - best time to book dolphin swim?

Firstly do you get to choose your time ? If so what time is recommend?
I am thinking of grabbing breakfast as soon as we are checked in then off to feed the birds.
Would you do dolphin swim before lunch or after?
Thanks

I am sure the swim is allocated on first come first served, we got there for 7.15 and checked in and got a morning time. Personally I would go with a morning swim that way once it's done you can enjoy the rest of the day without clock watching for your swim time, also if the weather turns in the afternoon they could cancel your swim.

Early swim as possible, or you don't really relax worrying about time, and if August, more chance of storm in afternoon.

They won't let you choose the time, the earlier you arrive the earlier your swim time will be. I agree an early swim is better to ensure the weather doesn't ruin it! We checked in around 8am and were given a 10.20am swim which was perfect. We had breakfast and had plenty of time to let our stomachs settle before the swim.

Thanks 👍🏻 I thought you could choose lol we plan to get there early so hopefully we get a good time slot.
There will be 4 teenagers in our party so getting them up early might be a challenge 😴
