What an amazing first experience with Madonna indeed! Was quite apprehensive to touch the dolphin but dear Renee and the adorable Madonna made it so very easy and enjoyable for us. The sheer glee on my face shows how thrilling this was for me ….exhilarating and memorable indeed…thank you, Madonna and Renee…..

Robert served us at the bar which was excellent as well but would have liked guacamole served wit the nachos 😊 we are vegetarians and could not have anything else except fruits and nachos

Ending up with bad taste – they prevent you from taking photos and then ask you hundreds of USDs for their photos

Sep 2022 • Family

We visited this place a family of 4 (two kids ages 5 and 7).

First the instructors were all really nice and they all wanted us to have the best experience (and the only reason i didn’t given this place 1 star).

The biggest problem we had with this place is the outrageous photos price.
They asked us for over 200 USD for the photos they took.

They told us that they just offer this service and we don’t have to use it, which would have made since, but we brought our own waterproof cameras which they prohibited us from using and the entire activity is around taking the photos.

We didn’t agree to pay these prices and walked out with a bad taste and without any photos.

You can charge whatever price that you want as long as you don’t prevent any other options but the way they work there really feels like a ripoff.

100% worth it

Sep 2022 • Family

Dolphin discovery was amazing! We had the Royal swim and it 100% worth it. You get to swim with the dolphins as well as an all you can eat buffet (two different rooftop restaurants) and unlimited drinks, rooftop infinity pool and some other things with Royal swim. Experiencing the dolphins is definitely the best part though. Renee and Marco made the experience even better and made sure that the younger kids have the best experience possible. Renee was super sweet and told us about how the dolphins like to steal socks! It was a great experience and definitely worth the money.

HORRIBLE

Sep 2022 • Solo

This type of organization needs to definitely be more organized.
Day started with someone from the Dolphin Discovery company to head on a catamaran, which was the wrong boat, when lead me to missing my actual boat needed, so they had to transport me to the actual boat.
Once we got back at 605, another associate, after confirming needing transportation back to my hotel, lead me to a transportation van, which wound up being the wrong van.
I had to pay out of my pocket gas money, or they were going to DROP ME OFF in the middle of Cancun, 40 miles away from my hotel, and all Dolphin Discovery said, was I needed to get a cab or local bus, even though they specifically told me to get into that van.
To this day, they have yet to reimburse or even help with the situation.
I would do your research on every excursion you take, especially dolphin discovery

The best experience ever

Aug 2022 • Couples

This day is a must – I booked through tui and so glad we did. We got collected at 7am and got the ferry to the isles mujeres. On the ferry we had breakfast and was extremely well looked after by Juan.

We arrived at dolphin discover around 45 mins later and we were straight in with the dolphins for around 2 hours. It was extremely well organised and we weee in groups of around 8, nothing was rushed this was the best experience of my life. Following this we fed tha manatees, I wasn’t keen on this but they were so big yet so dainty. We then got to snorkel with the sharks before getting the ferry to the other part of the island.

This was where we had lunch – all included in the price and the bars also. Following lunch we went in the zip wire over the sea, snorkelling in the coral reef and we could also do kayaking.

The day was outstanding definitely recommended- it’s a full day out and worth every penny.

We paid 70 usd pp for photos but got some amazing pics with memories to treasure.

Great snorkeling tour

Nov 2022 • Couples

The 4th november we tried the snorkeling tour which included 3 stops (2 very fine places to see fishes and then the underwater museum). We saw different kind of fish and it was very beautiful. When we were finishing snorkeling, we had a good lunch before we ended our tour.

For our tour we had 3 young guys that did a really good job. Diego our “tour guide” was good to explain things about the fishes and took us through all the beautiful places. Sergio was very helpful to serve drinks and help in the water in case it was needed. Manny the captain did also a great job behind the helm.

We can really recommend this snorkeling tour. You get a lot of value and experience; you will not forget or regret the tour at all.

Best regards

Great snorkeling tour

Oct 2022

The snorkeling tour was very enjoyable and worth the money! The meeting point is easy to find and from there its a short walk to the boat.

One suggestion though: at the end when we had lunch I would have appreciated some more explicit information such as which table should we sit at and at what time should we be back at the boat.

EXCELLENT tour, excellent price

Nov 2022 • Couples

Went on a snorkeling tour and had a WONDERFUL time! Our tour guides were Diego, Sergio and Manny.

Diego and the crew made it a party — upbeat, friendly, and just really kind. The three locations were all amazingly beautiful, the snorkeling gear was clean, and the lunch (part of the package!) was included.

My recommendation would be to bring plenty of cash with you. The lunch is included, but beverages are not, and at the end of the tour I couldn’t help but tip these three great guys who showed us such a wonderful time.

We will definitely do another snorkeling trip with Island Adventures Mexico the next time we’re in Isla Mujeres!

Outdoor games for adults: what to do on a picnic while the barbecue is fried

July 23LikbezGames

Learn the rules and never get bored in the fresh air.

Ultimate

Photo: Ernest McGray, Jr. / Flickr

  • Purpose of the game : Earn points by passing the disc to your teammates.
  • Number of players : two teams of 5-7 people.
  • Playing area : 100 x 37 m (central area 64 x 37 m plus two 18 m goal areas at the edges).
  • Equipment : frisbee.

Ultimate is a very dynamic game with no age or gender restrictions. Ideal for outdoor recreation with a large noisy company. All you need is a frisbee and markers to mark the boundaries of the playing and scoring areas. If there is not enough space, then the size of the site can be reduced.

Rules of the game

Participants line up along their zones. The disc is brought into play by the team that wins the draw. Opponents must either intercept the Frisbee in the air, or wait until the projectile touches the ground.

The player holding the disc cannot run with it. You can make a pass within 10 seconds, while you can not take your supporting foot off the ground. The task of the opponents is to prevent an accurate pass and intercept the Frisbee. There are no judges in Ultimate: everything is based on mutual respect of the players. Therefore, when selecting, you cannot touch the owner of the disk.

To earn a point, you need to pass the disc to your player, who is in the opponent’s goal zone.

Country squash

Photo: Dmitroza / Depositphotos

  • The object of the game is to win the most games.
  • Number of players : 2 or 4.
  • Playing area size : any.
  • Equipment : rackets and squash ball.

Squash is similar to tennis, except that the ball is not thrown over the net by the racket, but hits the walls. Usually squash is played on a special court surrounded by four walls, but in the country you can get by with just one vertical plane.

Rules of the game

Find a flat wall with no windows or doors where you can throw the ball. The wall of your house (not the neighbor’s!) or garage will do. You can play one on one or two on two.

The game consists of raffles. The one who dropped the ball lost. Whoever wins the draw gets a point. The player with 11 points wins the game. With a score of 10:10, the game continues until a gap of two points. How many games to play is up to you.

Do not treat country squash as a serious competition. This is just a fun way to warm up and compete with friends in between meals.

Pétanque

Photo: Nick King / Flickr

  • The object of is to score 13 points.
  • Number of players : two teams, no more than 3 people in each.
  • Size of the playground: 15 × 4 m. Ancient Greece. In those days, round stones were thrown, thereby exercising accuracy. In the Middle Ages, petanque was tabooed by the authorities: fencing and archery were considered more rewarding pursuits. But in spite of everything, the game has survived to this day and is very popular in Europe, especially in France.

    Rules of the game

    The game uses no more than 12 metal balls. If a team consists of one or two people, then each player plays with three balls. If out of three, then two balls are available. Team shells should be visually different.

    The lot determines which group starts the game. She draws a circle with a diameter of 30–50 cm on the platform and throws a wooden ball. After that, the players stand in a circle and throw their balls, trying to place them as close as possible to the jack. You can hit and shoot down opponents’ projectiles, as well as change the position of the jack, but you can not go beyond the circle.

    When all the balls have been thrown, scoring is done. The team whose ball is closest to the jack wins. Then you need to see how many victors’ balls are in the radius limited by the losing team’s ball closest to the jack. This number is the number of points earned by the winners. The game goes up to 13 points

    As soon as you master the rules (you can find them on the website of the Russian Pétanque Federation), you will understand how exciting the game is. It has both a sports and an intellectual component. It is necessary not only to accurately throw rather heavy balls, but also to build the tactics of the party.

    Unusual volleyball

    Photo: toxawww / Depositphotos

    • The goal of the game is to score 15 points.
    • Number of players : two teams of 6 players.
    • Playing area size : any.
    • Equipment : volleyball net and ball.

    The ball is indispensable in nature. But you can not only choose football or dodgeball familiar to everyone, but modify the rules and play volleyball without hands.

    Rules of the game

    The essence is the same as in regular volleyball and pioneer ball: throw the ball over the net. If it falls on the opponents’ territory, your team has earned a point. The only difference is to receive the ball, put blocks, you can pass with your head, shoulder, legs, anything, but not with your hands. They can only put the ball into play. The game is played up to 15 points.

    This volleyball may not be as sporty as the classic one, but it is very fun. Ask someone who is not involved in the game to take a picture of the game: then you will laugh heartily.

    • The goal of the game is to knock out pieces with the least number of throws.
    • Number of players : any.

    This is a Russian sports game with two centuries of history, which few people know about now. Being in nature will be a great way to spend your time.

    Rules of the game

    There are 15 figures used in the towns: “cannon”, “fork”, “star” and so on. The rules and the sequence of their construction are described here.

    You can play both one on one and in teams (at least five people in each). The maximum task for the player is to knock out a figure from the city (and suburbs) with a minimum number of bat throws. The first throw is made from the horse. If it was not possible to knock out a figure with one blow, then they throw it again, already from a half-cone.

    Gorodki is a democratic game. You can play on any flat surface: asphalt, earth, lawn. Marking is easy to do with chalk or spray paint. In this case, the size of the site can be reduced, and the rules can be simplified. For example, do not draw a suburb or use only the simplest shapes.

    Treasure hunters

    • The goal of the game is to find the treasure.
    • Number of players : any.
    • Playing area size : any.
    • Equipment : map, treasure, clues.

    This game can be classified as intellectual. Both players and organizers need to use their brains. Especially the last one. If you are taking on this mission, then you need:

    1. Decide what will be the treasure (for example, a keg of beer or the most comfortable camping chair).
    2. Decide where to hide it (more interesting to play in the forest).
    3. Make up clues and draw a map.

    Rules of the game

    The rules depend on your imagination. Here are just a few ideas.

    1. Cut the card into several pieces. To find the treasure, you will first need to collect the entire guidebook.
    2. Divide into two teams: one is the treasure hunters, the second is the organizers. The latter should meet the participants at intermediate points and give out parts of the map.
    3. Think of tasks. Giving away a card just like that is boring. Let the players fight for every cherished piece.
    4. Hide the treasure better. For example, bury it in the ground or hang it on a tree. The harder it is to get a prize, the more valuable it will be.

    • The goal of the game is to score the most points.
    • Number of players : two teams of 4 or more players.
    • Playground size : length 40–55 m, width 25–40 m.
    • Equipment : tennis balls, bat 70–110 cm long. Some probably remember the times when they played bast shoes in the yards and the shtaketina served as a bat. Now they play mostly in schools. But going out into nature is a great occasion to shake the old days.

      Rules of the game

      There are many variations of the rules and game nuances. You can choose the charter that you are accustomed to since childhood or that you like best. The following are just general instructions.

      Bast shoes area is divided into several zones:

      1. City. That’s where the submission comes from.
      2. House or con. You have to run there.
      3. The playing field between them. There they salute the players.

      A member of the serving team must kick the ball into the playing field and, putting down the bat, run to the house and back. At the same time, he must avoid being tagged by the ball and observe the following rules:

      1. You must not touch the ball.
      2. It is not allowed to run over the touchlines.
      3. One cannot return to the city without visiting the house.
      4. You cannot return to the house if you have already run out of it.

      The player who successfully returned to the city earns one point for his team and the right to the next move. If a participant is tagged, the teams change places.

      The players of the driving team are in the playing area during the throw. Their task is to catch the ball on the fly (in which case throw it back to the city as quickly as possible) or pick it up from the ground and throw it at a running player. You cannot move around the playing field with the ball in your hands (although in some variations of the game it is possible and even necessary), you must pass from the spot.

      The team with the most points wins.

      Opinions

      in game Genshin Impact has a lot of different activities and features. From exploring the world and going through the story – to pumping characters, and in different ways. The game is tagged “ Exploration ” and “ RPG ” in the genres, so it’s no surprise that it has so many features.

      But sometimes, the player can simply become bored constantly trying to get the right artifact on a recently knocked out character or trying to upgrade it; perhaps the player has gone through the entire storyline at the moment, and the characters and that one are armed to the teeth. What to do in such a situation?

      It’s for times like these that I’ve prepared my ways of keeping myself busy in the game, waiting for a new update, or just when you want to do something in the game… other than constantly playing “ Spend Resin “.

      Peace and Reputation Quests

      As a good traveler and explorer, perhaps you know about such a wonderful thing as Peace Quests and Reputation Quests . In essence, they are one and the same. But for the tasks of the world, most often, you will receive not only the experience of the reputation of the region, but also the game currency for buying prayers – source stones , most often in the amount of ~ 30-60 pieces . The tasks of the world, in fact, are quite an interesting and entertaining thing. They are very profitable to perform and, most often, they even have an interesting storyline. And sometimes they even affect the map ! And the experience of the reputation of the region can open you new items, recipes or profile background .

      Marked with a blue exclamation mark on the map. So you can run around the world and look, all of a sudden, you missed a couple of these?

      NPCs

      Genshin Impact has a wide variety of NPCs with different backgrounds. At first glance, they may seem ordinary and boring, but most of them, in fact, turn out to be very interesting. Like the same Hoffmann from Mondstadt . Talk to those who interest you, since there are many of them in the game.

      Some characters can even give you something , albeit in a small amount, some will tell you something, some have an interesting backstory.
