Dolphin Encounter

The first encounter; learn and have fun! This interactive program allows non-swimmers to learn more about dolphins while standing in waist-deep water in the seawater lagoon at our dolphin center in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico.

Your experience begins with an educational session introducing you to the dolphins where you will learn about the bottlenose dolphin’s anatomy, physiology, natural history and animal training.

Then get ready to enter the water where trainers introduce you to the dolphins. For 15 minutes, groups of no more than 8 people get an incredible eye-to-eye look at the dolphins, feel their smooth skin, give training signals and even feed the dolphin.

Duration of the program is 45 minutes including orientation. Group size is limited to eight people per dolphin to ensure that you have the most personal experience, so reserve an unforgettable dolphin experience for yourself or someone you love TODAY!

Dolphin Encounter participants must be at least 4.5 ft tall.

In the Family Encounter, parents may hold children ages 1 to 3 free of charge. (One Child per adult please.)
Under Special Instructions please note Family Encounter if you are accompanying a child (Age 1-3).
Please do not wear sunscreen or jewelry.

All children under 12 must be accompanied by a paying adult.

Personalized photos of your Dolphin Encounter, food and beverages are available for purchase at
