La Isla seems appealing because it is close to the resort, so if my daughter tires we can get back quickly. Is this place okay for a dophin swim?

Thanks for any help with this!

Assuming that the aquarium is open,(maybe someone can confirm that for you) I'd do it there.

Last year, my BIL and SIL did the dolphin swim at La Isla mall aquarium. (discount through Brant) It was fine. They got to swim with the dolphins, have their pictures taken with them and also the dolphins did the foot push with them.

The only drawback is that whoever else goes with the swimmer has to pay the entrance fee to the aquarium in order to watch.

I hope you and your family have a great time in Cancun. I look forward to hearing about your trip when you return.

Mike :)

Thank you Mike!! (There is no discount from Brant right now, right? I thought his card was not being sold at the moment?)

Brant's Card

I had heard that he started the 2x1 card back up a few days ago. I'm not sure what is actually available right now. I'll try to see if I can find out.

Brant's card is back on! The following link will take you to his website describing the dolphin swim.

I would contact him today via email, give him your hotel contact information and tell him you're interested in the dolphin swim. (these need to be booked 24 hours in advance). If worse comes to worse, you can have him call you once you get there. My SIL booked hers after we were already in Cancun by calling Brant on the phone.

Have a great vacation,
Mike

Thanks again Mike.

We will probably wait until we are down there to book, so that we can see the different programs and decide what would be best. I haven't had a whole lot of luck reaching Brant for things, but I'll shoot him an e-mail.
