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 DOLPHIN EMOTIONS?
A: We recommend the Dolphin Encounter only for those who aren't comfortable in the water or for families with small children, it's a wonderful, easy introduction where you can meet and interact with dolphins from a shallow platform. For everyone else, the Royal Connection or Dolphin Emotions programs are well worth the extra money, since both include actually swimming and playing with the dolphins. The Emotions experience offers a fun, personal swim with one dolphin, while the Royal Connection adds even more excitement with two dolphins and extra activities for the ultimate adventure. All include access to the water park, so whichever you choose, you're guaranteed an unforgettable day in Puerto Vallarta.

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.

Q: WE HAVE A LARGE GROUP, CAN YOU ACCOMMODATE ALL OF US?
A: You bet! We can handle groups of all sizes. If you have over 20 people in your group, Contact our Groups Team for our VIP personalized service to fit your group with exactly the experience you're looking for and at our exclusive discount pricing. We can also create customized experiences just for you. If you can dream it, we can do it!
