Dolphin Encounter

DETAILS

  • 21/2
    hrs Estimate Duration
  • Family Recommended

Your dolphin encounter in Roatan takes place in a natural setting that resembles a Tahitian island village. The resort is laid out on two small keys, one of which is the private home to a large family of Atlantic bottlenose dolphins. You’ll travel across the resort's lagoon to Bailey’s Key where your encounter will begin with a brief orientation at a beachfront cabana. Following the orientation, you'll walk along a white sandy beach into clear, waist-deep Caribbean waters and join trained naturalists, where you'll receive a personal introduction to a resident dolphin.


The trainer will describe the dolphins’ characteristics, anatomy and behaviors and give you the opportunity to ask questions, touch, kiss and play with a member of this friendly family of marine mammals. During the session you'll have excellent photo opportunities in addition to professional photographs that will be taken of you and your new friends. These photographs will be available for purchase following the encounter.


Need to Know:

Note: Participants must be at least 4 years of age to participate and all participants between 4 to 12 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian in the water. Pregnant women are not allowed to participate.
