The Marmion dolphins are among the most beautiful sea creatures. Aspen Snowmass, Club Med Marmaris, Sourcemo, and SkySafari offer all-inclusive dolphin and sea turtle safaris, according to the resort’s website. Membership, which includes accommodation, food, and water sports, costs $2795 a week. Other marine parks that offer swims with dolphins include Wild Springs in Florida and X-Serve Marine Park in India. And, of course, there’s the SeaWorld in San Diego, which caters to crowds who don’t want to venture off the boats.
