We had an amazing time, the ladies running the session were very well knowledgeable and gave lots of valuable information, friendly and patient with children. We would definitely do it again, an unforgettable experience.

Enjoyed but could have been alot better.

I really enjoyed this encounter with the dolphin (not dolphins) but i found it to be not worth its money. It didnt last very long and wasnt alot going on, didnt even get to feed them. I expected to be interacting with them alot more so was quite disappointed.

What you can expect

No two dolphins are the same. Each has its own cheeky personality, and each meet-and-greet experience with Sea World’s beautiful dolphins is unique. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity you will love! Your Marine Mammal trainer will tell you all about these incredible creatures with a professional photographer on standby to capture the most touching moments.

This experience does not include entry into the park. There are height and age restrictions, so please read further information listed below.

animal adventure, swim with dolphins.

not really worth the money, i paid over $500 for 2 people and didn't actually 'swim' with the dolphins, only played with them, touched them. Too short a time. Lovely photos though.
