You’ll also learn about sea life and the behavior and communication of these marine mammals firsthand.
Learn All About Dolphins
You’ll get to swim with a dolphin and learn all about them from the dolphins themselves! Discover fascinating facts about their behavior and adaptations, including their unique vocalizations, personalities, and eating habits. You’ll also learn about how they interact with each other and with humans. Communicating and playing with our friendly dolphins will leave a lasting impression on your heart.
Take a Dolphin Ride
Swimming with dolphins is an incredible experience. These playful yet majestic animals inspire wonder in people of all ages. When you swim with a dolphin, you’ll feel a wave of excitement as you interact, play, and laugh with one of these lovable creatures, and even take a lightning-fast ride across the water on their back.
Caring for Our Dolphins
We care deeply for our dolphins and ensure they have downtime. We limit the time they spend interacting with visitors to no more than two hours each day, and we provide them with plenty of time to play and interact with each other in our stimulating environment. They also have training sessions and regular health checkups to ensure their well-being.
We take pride in the ethical treatment of our dolphins and are proudly certified by the Humane Conservation program. If you’d like to learn more about how we care for our dolphins and sea lions, please take a look at our program.
