My wife and I did the dolphins at Discovery Cove shortly after they first opened, the price was, I think, $129.
We had never been swimming with the dolphins, and it was well worth the price. That price also included all day at the park, including a delicious lunch, and 7 consectutive days at Sea World. We figured it was a "once in a lifetime" adventure, and have never regretted it.
Since then, we have gone on dolphin swims in Jamaica and Mexico while on cruise vacations. They are beautiful animals, and it is a privilege when they let you in their world.
