Description

Enjoy an unforgettable 30-minute shallow-water dolphin experience designed for guests who want to get up close and personal with a bottlenose dolphin without having to swim in deep water. Your dolphin interaction takes place in approximately 2 to 3 feet of water, providing a comfortable setting for families, younger children, and guests who prefer staying in shallow water.

With guidance from the professional dolphin training team, you’ll have opportunities to touch, pet, play, interact, and even share a kiss with a dolphin. You’ll also participate in fun dolphin behaviors while learning more about these intelligent and fascinating marine mammals. It’s a wonderful opportunity to experience a dolphin face-to-face while creating special vacation memories and plenty of great photo opportunities.

This program is shallow water only. There is no deep-water swimming and no dolphin ride, making it a great alternative for guests who want plenty of hands-on dolphin interaction without participating in the deeper-water Dolphin Swim.

Although your dolphin interaction lasts approximately 30 minutes, plan on about 2 hours for the complete experience, including the dolphin presentation, changing time, your shallow-water dolphin encounter, and time afterward to view your professional photos. Participants must be at least 3 years old. All-day parking is free.
