Sea Life Dolphin encounter is one of the top dolphin encounter experiences in Oahu Hawaii because the animals are lovingly and attentively cared for by the professional staff. To respect their boundaries and well-being, this experience does not involve swimming with the dolphins. However, you’ll interact with our pod from a waist-deep platform and spend time with our expert animal trainers to learn what it takes to care for our dolphin family. Learn about their habitat, physiology, and conservation and walk away with a once in a lifetime experience! Participants will have hands-on fun and exciting experience interacting with the dolphins and even watch them attempt to “hula dance” for you!

One individual (non-group) photo per participant included with your dolphin experience! A value of $35! There’s not a better or more memorable way to top off your family vacation in Hawaii than with a dolphin encounter at Sea Life Park!
