💬 What Parents Say

  • 💡Book your Dolphin Encounter well in advance (ideally months ahead) and plan flexibility into your visit. Animal participation is subject to change due to weather or availability, so arrive early and be prepared for potential schedule changes or cancellations. The venue closes at 5pm, so arriving early gives you the best chance for your encounter if rescheduling is needed.
  • 💡Leave all personal belongings, phones, and cameras at home or secured outside the interaction area. Professional photographers capture photos during your encounter which are sold separately, so budget for these keepsakes if desired rather than expecting to take your own photos.
  • 💡Arrive at your scheduled encounter time well before the posted start time to allow for check-in procedures with your group of up to 10 guests. Given the venue's 5pm closing time and the potential for delays, arriving significantly early maximizes your window for the actual encounter experience.
  • 💡Take advantage of the current Dolphin Encounter Spring Sale offering 20% savings. Consider combining this with related experiences like the Dolphins Up-Close Tour or Dolphin Adventures for a more comprehensive and educational marine life experience.
  • 💡Pay close attention to trainer instructions and educational commentary during your encounter. Trainers are noted as knowledgeable and passionate about fostering respect for dolphins and marine conservation, making the experience as much about learning as about interaction.
