We swam with a pod of wild dolphins in the ocean and they got really close
Most of the wild dolphin dives in Kona take to you where they sleep during the day, thus disturbing them as they try to rest. If you would like to minimize the impact you have on the dolphins and not disturb their sleep, take earlier morning tours that follow them on their path home. It is more difficult to find them in the wild, but you minimize any negative impact.
