- What Will You Do
Guests arrive at the facility, check in, and then listen to a 30 minute educational briefing given by one of DPMMR's team members. This briefing not only covers dolphin anatomy and physiology, marine mammal conservation and ocean conservation, but explains our work as a not for profit marine mammal rescue organization and what you will do in the water with the dolphins. Then you will be fitted with a flotation vest and asked to stand on a mechanical platform. This platform will then lower guests into the water to waist deep height, where a trainer will guide you and the dolphins through a variety of behaviors. No swimming is involved at all! Guests are standing comfortably for the entire experience. The best part of the Splash and Wade program is family members as young as 3 years of age are allowed to participate with an accompanying adult! Marine mammal fun for the whole family!- What Is Included
- Flotation vest- Changing rooms
- Rinse off showers
- Amazing DPMMR marine mammal family and staff
