Itinerary

Guided by one of our dolphin trainers, you’ll be led on a snorkeling experience of a lifetime! The goal of this program is to observe and learn more about the dolphins' natural behavior and abilities. After an educational briefing, you’ll be encouraged and shown how to simulate dolphin body language with parallel swimming and diving underwater. While in the water, mask and fins are required, but the snorkel is optional. Enjoy the unique experience of becoming a member of a dolphin pod, while observing the dolphins' natural grace, beauty, and curiosity. Guests may observe natural behaviors such as nursing, vocalizations, hunting/fishing, and diverse social interactions within the pod.
