So it looks like I will be going to Disney with the family for a few days Mar 25-29.  Its not long enough for me to sneak away and get some real diving done, but there is that program at Disney World.   Has anyone ever done it?  Is it worth it?  Is it something to do to just get the t-shirt?

Thanks
Steve

 I had looked into it before and i think it semed a little overpriced for what you do. It didn't seem like you get a whole lot of time in the water and not a lot of contact with the dolphins. It would be cool to do though

You get 40 min in the water.  It is a fairly short time for the $150 charge.

I wouldn't do it. It seems interesting but I'd rather spend that $$ on drinks at Pleaseure Island!

 Yea - I will most likely pass on it.  Was just curious.  I just hate going all the way to Florida and not getting at least one dive in.
