"You can swim with the dolphins!"

Though a bit pricey, Discovery Cove is an amazing water adventure for the whole family. Discover the magic of the underwater world hands (and feet) in. You can swim with dolphins and other underwater creatures, so its an absolute delight for all! I highly recommend this one in a lifetime place!

"An Experience Like No Other!"

I wish that I would have known about Discovery Cove prior to just a few years ago. It's a wonderful time to go swimming with the dolphins with my family. My children can't stop talking about it; the only few bad things are that there sometimes is a long waiting list/time and it is VERY EXPENSIVE!

"The best get-away! "

My husband and I spent a day at Discovery Cove and couldn't have been more pleased. We loved the all you could eat/drink plan, which included alcohol! Our swim with the dolphin experience was amazing and the stingray encounter is just too neat! The entire park is relazing and quiet, due to the low number of people they allow in each day. It is pricey, but so worth it!

"date time!"

My husband and i went to discovery cove on a "date" while vacationing in FL. It was amazing.not just for the dolphin swim but the whole place. The aviary is brlliant, the birds actually come and sit on you, the tropical fish snorkelling, the beach and the food was incredible. I'd certainly recomend discovery cove. It's a lot of money but one of the most special days we've ever had.

"Fun with the Family"

Across the street from SeaWorld, its parent park, Discovery Cove expands the dolphin interaction program begun there into an all-inclusive (well, almost, anyway) resort experience. For the full price you get a dolphin encounter, which includes about forty-five minutes of instruction and forty minutes in the water with a dolphin, a trainer, and about eight other people. The package includes a cafeteria-style lunch, one free photograph taken as you enter the park, use of snorkel equipment (you keep the snorkel), and access to the park’s freshwater river pool, saltwater ray and coral reef pools, aviary island, beach, lockers, showers, towels, and a seven-day pass to SeaWorld. The kids will love feeding the birds and petting the rays. Snacks, beveages, and dolphin interaction photos cost extra (at typical theme park prices). Admision is limited to 1,000 people per day, and reservations are required. Children must be age six or older to swim with the dolphins.
