Dolphins are well cared for and extremely friendly, funny mammals. My wife and I were very impressed with our encounter.

we had the most amazing time you could have, the souvenier photos and the shop are expensive but it is something you just have to have so be prepared for that. Everything there was fantastic, love birds eating out of your hair and being kissed by a parrot in the bird enclosure!! meeting the dolphins is something we will never forget and well worth the money.

It was a wonderful experience and would do it again...Everyone should encounter the dolphins once in their lifetime...Would definitely book with Viator....

It's expensive but incredible. If you can afford it, do the sea lion encounter too.

I really enjoyed the dolphin encounter. The only downfall was not being able to have my family there to watch this experience with me. I understand the policy of not wanting pictures to be taken so you can purchase ones taken from Ocean World but family members should be able to watch this take place. The rest of Ocean World was great. The tiger exhibit was awesome. The other shows were all very entertaining and informative. The buffet lunch was not good at all. I recommend not eating here, just eat a big breakfast before you leave your resort and then wait to eat supper when you return to your resort. The ride there and back was good, no problems with pick up or drop off. The bus was on time each way the the guide was very friendly and informative and spoke english very well.
