Hi Stephen. Just read your article.

Perhaps you could travel a little further to PATTAYA where you can swim with dolphins, at a place called the sanctuary of truth.

If you do go please let me know what it's like as I'm hoping to go there in January.

Have a good holiday :0)

Thanks Kez ! Like Stephen I am looking for a place where MY SON can swim with dolphins. I am just checking in the Internet NOW, so I founs your article. The funny thing is, that I live in Thailand since a couple of years, have been in Pattaya so many times and never heard about that place. We definately will go there very soon. Thanks for the tip, Bye

We have been to that place in Pattaya (Sanctuary of truth) today and it was wonderful. My son had so much fun with the dolphins, although they looked a little different to the ones from the movies. Thes have no "long nose" must be a different species. They are swimming in a salt water laguna next to the sea. This laguna is divided into two different sections. In the second section is a couple of long nose pink coloured dolphins. They just had a baby and swimming there is not possible. But the entire place, including that wooden carved temple is just beautiful. They have a hoempage, check that out: http://thailandforvisitors.con/east/pattaya/truth.html

Hi, I was also searching for information about dolphin swimming and I found your article. I really want to go to Pattaya. Do you (or maybe Steffi) now the prices for that?
Thanks Melanie

I found an excellent tour company based in Chanthaburi province.
They offer free reservation and booking for swimming with dolphins -

They had a neat online payment system using paypal, and issued us with eTickets for entrance to Oasis Sea World and for the swim with dolphins.

They also had accomodation information for Laem Sing and Koh Chang , as well as travel assistance with pickup services from Bangkok, Pattaya, Koh Chang, Koh Samed, Chanthaburi.

I would like to recommend their services, as I have seen in Forums that Swimming with dolphins in thailand, is quite talked about, and also that it is very difficult to book directly unless you have a thai bank account and can speak thai. Also they were so helpful that I wanted to promote them a bit.
