Wonderful show with the right mix of education and entertainment. Be aware that you could get wet based on where you sit. Also, avoid sitting behind the pillars. There are some great seats in the shade - maybe 10-15 seats back from the front.

We were told when we laid that my daughter would get to swim with the dolphins. Well it was the opposite. The tour guide was very rude and it was so hard to even touch the dolphins. That was the onky reason we went to see world . The dolphins there selves were lovely , cute an felt nice to be around. Very well trained and behaved.

Great place to see the dolphins swimming around. If you go underneath you can watch them underwater and see them swimming, often in groups.
Had an absolutely blast at the Dolphin Encounter. You get to touch on the Dolphins and learn how they train them and how to do some of their tricks. Not to mention great pics

It was a wonderful experience. The trainer was so insightful and entertaining. The dolphins are amazing they are way bigger than they appear at first.

So cool to be able to interact with them and learn their personalities.

I suggest reserving the first of the day before the park gets busy, you are more likely to interact with more dolphins and in a smaller group.

That or with a mid-afternoon interaction as a lot the crowd leaves with the summer daily thunderstorm.

They don't last long and wait it out.

Priceless experience.

I honestly don't recollect what the price was, but, I am certain that I wouldn't hesitate to pay it in the future.

The encounters are timed events, you'll meet in your group spot at whichever time your encounter is designed to be at. After a short stand within the group, you'll be introduced to the trainer you'll be with, and taken to your spot.

Our initial group had six of us, which seemed to be the standard for two dolphins. Wife and I lucked out, as another staff member volunteered to do another and we offered to jump with her - so, it was just us two, with a dolphin each.

The encounter was incredible. To be able to touch, and directly interact by giving commands, as well as have incredible photos taken professionally for you, with these gentle giants is an indescribable feeling.

This was by far my favorite experience in the park, and though, the cost comes separately from admission, if one has the funds to splurge, do not pass this one up!
