Visitors consistently describe their dolphin encounters here as once-in-a-lifetime experiences that become trip highlights. The staff earns praise for being knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the animals in their care. What really stands out is the facility's animal-first approach – the dolphins' comfort takes priority over guest entertainment, and reviewers appreciate seeing how healthy, happy, and well-socialized the animals appear. The rescue and rehabilitation mission adds meaningful purpose to each visit. The experience includes an educational facility tour and interaction time that guests find both fun and informative. Several reviews mention receiving hundreds of complimentary professional photos, which is a nice touch for preserving memories. The facility itself is clean and well-maintained, with options ranging from dockside experiences suitable for young children to full swim programs in deeper water. Staff members go above and beyond (one even dove to retrieve lost sunglasses), and multiple international visitors enthusiastically recommend returning. This appears to be a professionally-run operation where ethical animal care and memorable guest experiences go hand-in-hand.
My grandchildren, my sister and I had such a wonderful experience at Dolphins Plus! We had booked a dolphin experience at another location that was canceled at the last minute and dolphins plus was able to accommodate us! We all loved everything about this experience. The floating platform that lowered down into the water provided a super stable experience for me grandchildren (5 and 8) while allowing them to fully experience the dolphins up close. Our trainer was amazing - providing individualized dolphin behaviors for the 10 people in our group. I have had three opportunities to swim with dolphins (all at different places) and this was my favorite!! I highly recommend!
