Meet the dolphins without needing to swim. This close-up encounter lets you interact with a dolphin from a shallow platform, with the option to step into the water if you’d like a more hands-on experience.

You’ll get a pec shake, a hug, and a dolphin kiss, along with the chance to watch the dolphin’s acrobatics up close. It’s the most accessible of our dolphin programs, designed for non-swimmers, young children, and anyone who wants a shorter, lower-key interaction.
