Dolphin Royal Swim, Aquaventuras

Guests begin with a 15 minutes orientation seminar during which they watch an educational video to learn some of the more interesting facts about dolphins, followed by specific instructions from our training staff on what they will be doing when they enter to swim with the dolphins. Following the orientation, our trainers will take the guest dock side before they enter the water for a 30 minute “The Experience of a Lifetime” guests will enjoy the thrill of gently rubbing the dolphins skin as they swim next to these gentle creatures. They will be amazed at the dolphin’s power and grace as they push them through the water by their feet or jump over them. A portion of the water time will also be dedicated to the “free time”, where guests will interact more spontaneously with the dolphins allowing everyone a very personal DOLPHIN DISCOVERY.
