Dolphin Encounters places a strong emphasis on animal care, education, conservation and research, but also provides memorable experiences for participants in their "Dolphin Encounter" and "Dolphin Swim" programs and "Sea Lion Encounter."
Enjoy interaction with the fascinating, gentle and intelligent Atlantic bottlenose dolphins following 20-minute boat ride to Blue Lagoon Island and a brief orientation period.
The encounters take place from a waist-deep platform in the water, while the swim requires full immersion and includes additional interaction time.
Observers are welcome. Round-trip boat transportation to Blue Lagoon Island leaves from the Paradise Island Ferry Terminal. While on the island, participants can linger on the beach and in the water and enjoy water sports, drinks and lunch.
