You can get up close and personal in a truly unique experience where you will join Sea World’s dolphin trainer’s and enjoy an amazing interaction with these beautiful mammals while gaining an insight into their precious world. You’ll experience dolphin patting and a dolphin handshake in ankle deep water, as well as a special photo so that you can relive this once in a lifetime opportunity over and over again.
