Melka Hotel promote dolphin therapy for "children & adults with paralysis, critical illnesses, disabilities, condition after stroke and special needs."
They say people with disabilities will benefit from the unconditional and healing love of dolphins, and that sound waves emitted by dolphins "stimulate healing."
After reading tourist reports about the aggressive (and natural) behaviour frequently displayed by the wild dolphins towards tourists at the Melka Hotel, i think the Melka is extremely irresponsible in the way they put vunerable children and adults at risk of real harm.
