TIPS

Sonar will not detect everything for you. Some objects and animals are hidden from Sonar, especially

those that want to remain hidden, even other dolphins who may want to remain hidden! Still, it’s a

good idea to use Sonar when starting a level to get your bearings.

It’s always a good idea to find a messenger crystal as soon as possible for clues.

Try to find recognizable “landmarks” to keep track of where you are and where you’ve been.

Make sure you have plenty of air before exploring unknown areas.

Gifts always serve some purpose. If stuck, look for one of the gift crystals, and it may solve your

problems.

If something doesn’t seem to work, try approaching it from another angle.
