Mit den Delfinen im Wasser spielen und die Seelöwen berühren - ein "wow"-Erlebnis selbst für erwachsene Männer :-) Wir hatten das Glück, dass wir nur 4 Personen in der Gruppe mit den Delfinen waren, auf diese Weise hatte jeder sehr viel Möglichkeiten, mit den Delfinen zu interagieren. Die Coaches waren sehr einfühlsam und haben uns super betreut. Bei den Seelöwen war die Gruppe zwar größer, doch die Betreuung durch die Coaches war ebenso toll wie bei den Delfinen. Es gab sehr viele Möglichkeiten die Tiere zu Berühren und mit ihnen zu spielen - selbst mit kleinen Fischen füttern.... Wann kommt man schon Delfinen und Seelöwen so nahe? Einziger Wermutstropfen: die Bilder und Videos, die gemacht wurden, sind extrem teuer. 1 Bild kostete 5 US$, eine DVD mit allen gemachten Bildern und dem Video bei der Delfinaction satte 80 US$. Hieran sollte noch etwas gefeilt werden - ansonstent: ABSOLUT EMPFEHLENSWERT FÜR JUNG UND ALT!
