This experience was absolutely incredible and a highlight of our trip. We understood that snorkeling with wild dolphins might be a hit or miss, depending on their mood, but the dolphins were definitely up for interacting that day. They got so close that we could have easily touched them. We even lucked out and saw a baby dolphin and a sea turtle. It was amazing being able to hear the dolphins under water - that would help you know one was approaching. I would definitely recommend bringing a Go Pro or an underwater camera for this. We were in the water with them for about 30-40 minutes.
I will say that the weaker swimmers in our group did not see as much - this activity does require swimming around a lot to get to the dolphins, since they're constantly moving.
After the dolphins, we headed over to Los Arcos for more snorkeling. The water was a little choppy and visibility was low, but it was nice to see all of the birds that inhabit the area.
Overall this was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend giving it a go.
