The St Augustine dolphin touch and feed program get you up close and personal to these enchanting creatures. You get to pet and feed the dolphins from a safe and dry vantage point because you won’t get into the water and don’t need to put on a bathing suit. If you’re looking for a special time with a dolphin, you and your whole family or as many friends as you want to bring will enjoy this program together. A cost effective way to meet the dolphins!
