COMMENTS
"It was a birthday present for my 17year old daughter who I thought might
be too old for this experience but after speaking with the staff, asking questions
and having a frank and honest conversation, it turned out to be the most special
gift I could have given. The smaller group activities that we participated in
were most enjoyed plus we had enough down time to venture on our own and see
other sites. Coming from Maine, our trip to the Florida Keyes, in August, was
very well organized and I thank Dolphin World / Keys Adventure for this."
