SWIM WITH DOLPHINS IN PUERTO VALLARTA

Swimming with Dolphins is perhaps the top attraction in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. It is truly a great experience that nobody should miss. When you reminisce about your vacation this is one activity that will stand out in your mind forever. You'll actually interact with live dolphins, receiving kisses, stroking them, shaking hands (or flippers), with them, and watching them perform for you. You can even participate in their training! No matter how young or old you are, there is a dolphins activity here that you'll remember forever. Also see our Swim With Dolphins FAQ.

Puerto Vallarta Swim With Dolphins FAQ's
 

Q: WHICH SHOULD I CHOOSE - THE DOLPHIN ENCOUNTER OR THE DOLPHIN SWIM?
A: We recommend the encounter only to those people who are not comfortable in the water or for small kids.  Everyone else should choose the royal swim or signature - it's well worth the extra money.  The encounter is excellent too, but the swim is the best.  If you have all day, the Trainer for a Day is an awesome experience that has received glowing reviews.  We put together this at-a-glance table to help make telling the difference easier for you.

Q: CAN MY TODDLER OR INFANT SWIM WITH THE DOLPHINS?
A: Yes, kids 1 year old and up can do the Dolphin Encounter.


Q: CAN I SNORKEL WITH WILD DOLPHINS?
A: Yes! Well, maybe.  We now offer a fantastic opportunity to snorkel with wild dolphins.  We can guarantee that you'll see dolphins, but it's not 100% for sure that the conditions will allow for snorkeling with them.  However, this will give you by far the best opportunity to see these incredible creatures in their natural habitat.  If you want to touch the dolphins, or interact with them on a personal basis, then the Swim With Dolphins activities on this page are what you want. 

Q: I'M ON A CRUISE SHIP - DO YOU PICK UP AT THE PIER?
A: No, the cruise ships have contracts with certain companies who pay big money to be able to pick up at the pier - that's why the cruise excursions are so much more expensive.  To get to the dolphinarium, just take a taxi from the pier about ten minutes to the dolphinarium.
