This opened sea sanctuary is home to the dolphins and you will have a opportunity to interact with them in a new and exciting way on a submerged safe platform. This unique dolphin encounter is tailored for the young, old, and the non-swimmer. You and the trainer will decide with the dolphin on what behaviors you will experience. Each day will be different. During your experience, you will be greeted by a marine mammal specialist who will share fun facts and fascinating information about your dolphins and what to expect during your shallow water experience. You will come to respect the dolphins and the ecosystem where they live after this presentation. You will spend time on the platform where you will meet your dolphin during your experience and spend some platform work with the dolphin and trainer. It will be an experience you will never forget.
