Serenade on March 19-25

We will be on the Serenade visiting Barbados, St. Thomas, St. Marteen, Anitqua. Has anyone done the swimming with the dolphins at any of these islands? Also, which island would be the past to para-sail. Thank you for your help.

Hi..We did the same cruise on serenade 2 yrs. ago this feb. and did a dolphin/stingray encounter in antigua. It was fine, you don't spend the entire time with the dolphins though.
they bring you to their man made pond and you visit the birds inside the hut and some turtles outside. There are 2 ponds one in which you can go in with stingrays and feed them, then it's on to the dolphin pond. Its pretty cute, I had never done anything like it before but you do actually get right in and pet them and do some tricks with them and kiss them. They take a couple of pictures with the dolphin and you and when you're finished there is a place to buy a picture or the actual disc (which is a better deal)The day we went was a very rainy day (not that pretty there) but is worth a try if your into spending the $ on it. P.S. I hear the dolphin excursion in Nassau is the best!

We were on the Serenade in December. Our friends went parasailing in St. Martin near Orient Beach. I can't compare it to any of the other ports, but they had a blast.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
