Wild Dolphin Swim in the Bahamas

A few months ago I was fortunate to be able to swim with the wild spotted and bottlenose dolphins in the pristine blue waters off North Bimini, Bahamas. These exquisite natural surroundings allow you to relax, expand and gain true balance and connection within. Bimini is known for its healing energies, its Atlantean legends and its unique dolphins. The water is magnificent and there are beautiful deserted beaches for walking, and enjoying the sunset. One afternoon we came into harbor and I walked the small town of North Bimini and meditated on the beautiful beach as conch fishermen came in and the sun turned the sky into shades of yellow, orange and red. The 5 night dolphin trip I took was aboard a 91' yacht, named the Indigo. There are never more than 14 people per trip, so you each have more than enough room on the boat. There are 5 staterooms, each with 2 bunks, a full walkin shower and climate control. There is also one "giggle" room with 4 bunks, for lots more fun! Every day you look for the dolphins, and when they are present ( which is usually every day at least one time ) Geoffrey, the captain, tows you behind a tender ( small boat ) on tow ropes. This allows you to effortlessly swim along side the dolphins and form a human pod that mirrors the dolphins behavior. Geoffrey tows you the same speed as the dolphins so they swim next to you, under you and all around you. It is an unbelievable experience, and usually lasts about an hour each time. When the dolphins feel like playing we get off the ropes to free swim and play with them. It's an awesome indescribable experience!!

They serve 3 home cooked meals in the main air conditioned salon every day. For those with special diets, they are happy to do their best to accommodate you.

If you have ever wanted to swim with the wild dolphins this trip is for you. Watch this video and get a feel of what this trip is like, then go check out the upcoming dates available for the 2010 season at Dolphin Expeditions.
