Maru is a marine biologist. Edwardo is a wildlife photographer, whose work has appeared in National Geographic magazine. Together, they operate a wonderful guided service that gets you out into the wild to experience these magnificent sea creatures.
This trip offers you the opportunity to visit these fabulous animals in their natural environment and to participate in a research project that assists scientists in understanding and protecting the dolphins in Banderas Bay. Although there are no guarantees, you may get the opportunity to slide into the water and swim with some of the members of the dolphin family!
