Meeting dolphins alone is a holiday dream come true for many tourists. Places like Spain or Turkey are, thus, sometimes chosen with dolphins in mind. But have you considered that you can also take a swim with dolphins? Or even a dive? Today’s post will go over how much such an endeavour would cost you.
Swimming with wild dolphins in Turkey
It’s difficult to state unequivocally how much it would cost to dive or swim with wild dolphins in turkey. In many towns along the coast, cruises are organised to observe these animals. The cheapest rides of this type cost somewhere around £20. More importantly, tours of this type often also include a scheduled break for sea bathing, so with a bit of luck, you can count on meeting these mammals in the wild.
More expensive cruises, where you might also have a chance to swim and dive with dolphins, costs between £40-50. Tourists can expect a trip on a more luxurious ship with more activities planned.
Diving with dolphins in Turkey in their natural habitat is not as easy as just jumping into the first body of water you see. Even the cruises don’t always find dolphins on their path. For those of you who wouldn’t find dolphins in the wild, or you can’t be bothered to play with dice like that, there’s still one good ol’ reliable option – visit the several dolphinariums around Alanya.
Swimming with dolphins at water parks in Turkey
If you’re worried about the costs of swimming with dolphins in a dolphinarium in Turkey, we’ll tell you this upfront – your worries are well justified. The water park prices go as such:
- Bodrum Dolphin Park – the price for a swimming session with a dolphin is €110
- Aksu Dolphinarium in Antalya – the price for a swimming session with a dolphin is €100
- Sealanya in Side – the price for a swimming session with dolphins is €120
Yeah, it’s a treat. But now you can at least mentally prepare yourself for the cost of an unforgettable memory. Or, else, you can try your luck with finding wild dolphins. Either way, we hope you give it a try!
