Dolphin Swim vs Snorkeling in Lovina: What’s the Difference?

“What is the difference between dolphin swim and snorkeling?”
Although both activities involve being in the water, they are completely different experiences.
🐬 Dolphin Swim
Dolphin Swim is focused on experiencing dolphins from the water.

The boat moves slowly while you stay in the water and observe dolphins swimming nearby.
The experience is centered around:

- Being in the water
- A different perspective of the dolphin tour

🤿 Snorkeling
Snorkeling is focused on exploring underwater marine life.

- Mask
- Snorkel
- Fins if available
You can explore the coral reef and look for tropical fish and other marine life.
The focus is not dolphins, but the underwater environment.
