Swim with the Dolphins in Kauai

    It is possible to swim with the dolphins in Hawaii. The chances of swimming with the dolphins increase when you have a tour guide that can quickly get you where the dolphins congregate and get you out in the water amongst them. But for most people a dolphin tour will be a "dolphin watching" tour. The most common dolphin species in Kauai Hawaii is the spinner dolphins. The spinner dolphin get there name from their habit of leaping high into the air and spinning before diving back in the water. Spinner dolphins are generally between five and six feet in length and they congregate at night to feed before splitting up in the day time. Because of this congregation its possible to locate and get amongst them in the mornings. Dolphins are not the only thing to see, you can also see on a Kauai ocean tour, you can also see whales. Hawaiian Humpback Whales can be seen as the migrate from the cold waters of Alaska. Kauai wale watching season is around December through April. You can also see a Hawaiian turtle while snorkeling in the Kauai waters. Kauai has an older population of turtles which means the possibility of seeing big 200 plus pound turtles. If your going on a whale or dolphin watching boat tour combine it with a tour of the Na Pali Coast, which can only be easily seen by boat or air.
