IslandToIsland Posted May 26, 2008 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Can anyone who has done the dolphin swim at Chankanaab Park through dolphindiscovery.com tell me how long it lasts? Also how far is Paradise Beach from Chankanaab? I want to do both and wondering if it will be a tight squeeze. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJL Posted May 29, 2008 #4 Share Posted May 29, 2008 It's about 3 miles, give or take. You might go to the Questions about Paradise Beach thread. Paradise Beach Tom could certainly tell you. Enjoy the visit. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted May 31, 2008 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2008 If only doing one which would you choose? Nita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clackey Posted June 1, 2008 #6 Share Posted June 1, 2008 If only doing one which would you choose? Nita I like both places. Chank is nice with lots of things to do and see, but if you have a large group or family it can get a little pricey. If you want to see dolphins or snorkel, Chank gets the nod. If a sandy beach, good service, food, and drinks are needed or if kids are involved, I would go to PB. You can't go wrong at either place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey, thanks, there are just the two of us, I love to snorkel but DH doesn't even like water too much. He will swim a little, but is looking for more things to do. I think Chank will be more for us. I will see what others say as well. Thanks again and I don't want to highjack the thread but we are moving to Bella Vista in 10 days and I see you live in Mountain HOme. Nita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruznmike Posted June 1, 2008 #8 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Paradise Beach is a nice sandy beach. This is not favorable to good snorking. I live near a nice pure sandy white beach in north west florida, but not very favorable to snorkling. So, if the beach is what, you want you do not have to travel that far.

Does this mean that you will change your name to ArkieNita? :D I think that you would enjoy Chank. It is a gorgeous place. Just watch out for Iggie. That is the name that I gave to a huge iguana. When I got too close while taking his picture he would nod his head. I found out later that it is a sign of aggression.:eek: I can see me on Youtube now. I'll be the guy running around with a 6' iguana hanging on my tush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Actually we thought about moving to Mountain Home, but one of the reasons for our move: we want to be closer to our kids and grandkids; Mountain Home was just a little too far. Change my name and loose my seniority? I don't know, am trying to decide. LOL again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
