Tour Details

Dolphin Adventure Swim and Water Park

This dolphin program in Puerto Vallarta is designed to give you a safe and engaging opportunity to interact with one of the ocean's most intelligent animals. With a small group of up to 8 guests, you'll enjoy a fun, memorable experience guided by a professional trainer.

Your experience will begin with an educational briefing led by a professional trainer, introducing dolphin anatomy and habits, including their senses of smell and taste. You'll then step onto a submerged platform to enjoy a series of guided interactions with one dolphin.

On the platform, activities may include Dolphin Embrace (touch or hug), Dolphin Sight (vision), and Heart to Heart (soul). Following the platform portion, guests will take part in group free-swim time in the water as the dolphin circles around and responds to different sounds. The dolphin program lasts approximately 50 minutes, with a maximum of 8 guests per platform and one dolphin.

In addition to your dolphin experience, this tour also includes a 15-minute sea lion interaction (out of water). This fun and relaxed session gives you the chance to observe and interact with one of the most playful marine mammals.

Once your marine life encounters are complete, enjoy lunch from the swimmer's menu and spend the rest of the day at Aquaventuras Water Park. The park features water slides, a lazy river, a dolphin show, and a sea lion show.

Admission to the park is included with your dolphin program. Guests who wish to observe but not participate in the dolphin activity may do so by purchasing regular park admission.
