The dolphin experince is more comercial. We were here at the Atlantis on dolphin 10 years ago, and then we had the chance to play with the dolphin with the ball, and Kiss the dolphin. Now we just touched it and they took pictures and nothing impressive. The experience with Headout site was great, and for sure we will recomand and use the site again.

Get up close to the playful creatures of Dolphin Bay, and have your photo taken with the dolphins to relive the incredible Dolphin Meet & Greet experience. As the dolphins come to meet you right to the edge of the pool, you have no need to enter into the water. Thus, it is easy for people of all ages to enjoy a face-to-face encounter with these remarkable creatures. Make sure you visit the behind-the-scenes of Dolphin Bay and learn how the marine mammals are cared for.

If you have opted for the Dolphin Dip & Play, you are up for a personal and unforgettable shallow-water encounter with the adorable dolphins. Wade into waist-high water and watch as the dolphins show off their skills. The experience is suitable for all ages, as well as for non-swimmers.
