I want to swim with the dolphins, but i heard that the dolphins are in a big tank and you can swim with them but not touch them? Is this true, i can't ride them or touch them?

As far as I know there are only dolphin shows with one or three instructors. You can follow
the show at the Acuario Nacional de Cuba, see

I actually swam with the dolphins, was picked up by my feet into the air, I have done this twice. It was over on the Caribbean side just outside Cienfergus
Did this in Feb and April 07 The dolphins are in a natural bay which of course if fenced off.
I believe they are making a dolphinarium at Cayo Coco - do not know when this will be ready.
If you get to go enjoy - some people where lucky enough to go to other parts of the world - but insisted that Cuba was the best.

I haven't personally been there or done it yet...but I plan on it when i go in 2 weeks. I've found videos of people petting them and rubbing their bellies and having the dolphins kiss them and pull them around at a place in Varadero. So I'm going to say yes due photographic evidence

Not sure how that is a Cuba question, but it is mostly true. If you were highly trained in Scuba diving and had some connections to people that keep dolphins then you might be able to swing it.
Good luck-sounds like fun!

I am sure that you can swim with dolphins in Varadero, but I don't know what that is like, I am afraid.
