Upon arrival at Cozumel’s seaside dolphinarium, expert trainers greet you and provide you with a lifejacket, as you’ll be wading in both shallow and deep waters during the 1-hour program. Then follow the trainers to a station of waist-high water, where you’ll receive an orientation on dolphins’ characteristics and guidance on how to interact with these intelligent and energetic creatures.

Dolphin time! You’ll spend about 40 minutes with one of them in a shimmering lagoon. Wait until it cozies up to you, take its extended fins for a handshake, and then accept wet kisses and hugs from the sleek charmer.

Then, slip on the provided diving mask, submerge yourself and observe the smooth dexterity of the dolphins’ movements from a different perspective, and perhaps hear their singular singing and clicking sounds underwater.

Top off your already memorable experience with a belly ride on one of the dolphins. Trainers are present to ensure the safety of both humans and dolphins.

Photographers and videographers are on-site to capture your magical moments with the dolphins. Photographs and CDs will be available for purchase by the time you leave the dolphinarium.

After the program, stroll through the rest of the dolphinarium and enjoy food and beverages at the on-site restaurant.
