Dolphin Cay

Relax on the secluded sands as dolphins jump and play nearby. The first animals to live at Dolphin Cay were 16 rescued dolphins who’d been swept to sea from the Marine Life Oceanarium in Gulfport, Mississippi, during Hurricane Katrina.

Make friends with some of these friendly residents in the Shallow Water Interaction, wading in waist-deep waters as you hug, touch and kiss Atlantic bottlenose dolphins and sea lions.

Explore the depths of Dolphin Cay with a Deep Water Swim, snorkelling and gliding alongside a dolphin with a hand-held water scooter. Then experience the unforgettable rush of the signature ‘foot push’ as a dolphin propels you across the lagoon.

Become an aquarist for a day and explore the resort’s amazing marine facilities. Hand-feed cow-nose rays, learn about the care of 50,000 sea animals and discover the magical underwater ruins of Atlantis as you snorkel with rays, tropical fish and sharks. Get a taste of animal training with Trainer for a Day, an exclusive programme during which you’ll train and feed dolphins and sea lions.

Snorkel the mythical lost city of Atlantis, a captivating underwater realm. You’ll adventure through sunken ruins and artefacts, and have the chance to snorkel through Ruins Lagoon alongside sharks, spotted rays and brightly coloured tropical fish.
