The One swim with dolphins experience lasts 1 hour, which breaks down: 15 minutes of safety briefing and 45 minutes in the water with dolphins. It’s the most exclusive swim program because it’s just for you! It includes towels, a locker, a t-shirt, and a life jacket.
You will perform 21 activities by which you’ll learn more about dolphins’ anatomy, nature, intelligence, diet, and personality. You could also kiss a dolphin and slide on the water pushed by dolphins!
- What should I bring with me and what not?

Appropriate footwear, swim suit and an open mind to connect with nature. Guests may not bring personal cameras into dolphin program areas.

- Are guests welcome to watch?
-
If you travel with more people who do not want to do the activity, you only have the right to bring one companion for each person who will swim with dolphins. Their companions will not be able to go to the humid areas, that is to say, to the dock in which the dolphins are. In the different habitats we have areas in which their companions can wait and observe them while they carry out their activities with the dolphins. Our habitats are large so it is very likely that by the distances your companions do not reach to appreciate while you swim.
- Are you able to participate in a dolphin program with special needs?
-

Please call 1-888-526-2230 for US and Canada or +44 808 164 9319 for the UK to make a reservation and let the reservists know you have special needs and someone from the program will call you prior to your visit to review your options.
