Overview
Imagine the thrill of playing with the dolphins! Action and speed make this program the most popular, as it really lets you interact with these friendly marine mammals. The program begins with a briefing about the dolphins and an explanation of the activities you will experience.
From your submerged platform in the water, you will be able to interact with the dolphins, including the very popular dolphin kiss photo.
Then you will enter the water (life jackets required) for a speedy ride through the water for the dorsal tow as you hold on to their fins. Discover all the amazing skills these marine animals have, including the famous foot push. Feel their strength as they push you up and through the water by the bottom of your feet. The Royal Swim also includes a dolphin hug, kiss and handshake! Truly the experience of a lifetime!
Each session includes approximately 40 minutes in the water with the dolphins.
Our professional photographers will capture these magical moments for you. Photo prices vary based on the package you purchase.
