FAQ's

Expand all

May I bring a cellphone, camera, or video camera to take pictures?

Please note that cameras are only allowed in the observation areas, but not in the habitats where dolphin swims take place. However, we do provide the option to purchase professional photos following your experience.

Why can’t I wear sunscreen when swimming with dolphins?

All sunscreens, including biodegradable varieties, contain oils and residues that pose a threat to marine species, including dolphins. To protect your skin and the welfare of dolphins, we recommend using sun-protective clothing as an alternative.

Why can I not wear jewelry?

Access to the dolphin habitats with jewelry, accessories (including sunglasses), and medical devices such as hearing aids and prescription glasses is not permitted because they can easily fall off and cause a choking hazard for our marine mammals. We offer a complimentary locker service so you can store your belongings.

Can special needs visitors participate in your dolphin programs?

People with special needs are welcome to live the fantastic experience of swimming with dolphins; however, we understand that each case is different, so please contact our Travel Advisors first, who will guide you in selecting the right program.
