Dolphins

Dolphins

Dolphins are some of the most intelligent animals in the sea, their ability to learn and recognise situations gives them magnificent skills like communication in the form of clicking or whistling.

The bottlenose dolphins in our care each have different characters, likes and dislikes.

Dolphin Educational

Captivate your emotions with our ambassadors of the sea. Watch them in action and appreciate their intelligence, friendliness and beauty. Our younger dolphins are eager to show you how intelligent they are.

Dolphin Dry Experience

Give yourself the opportunity to learn more about dolphins and their nature. Our Dolphin Interaction Programme is a dry encounter where you will meet with one of our dolphins while on land. You can enjoy this session after you’ve discovered more about the Park and enjoyed the Presentations; General Entrance Fee is included in the price.

You will be able to touch the dolphins and learn some hand signals to communicate with them. During your 15 minutes of interaction, you will be guided by a professional animal carer who will explain all there is to know for your interaction with one of our dolphins. All participants must be age 6 or older.
