A magical experience! I wish we had time to do the sea lion and the penguin experience as well! Clean facility. All creatures are well taken care of.

It was a great experience, the staff was very nice and made us feel very welcomed. They educated us on the dolphins that we were interacting with. The only thing was the shadow on one of the pictures. Which they did retake but it was out of their control.

It was a dream come true enter acting with the dolphins

Loved swimming with the dolphins.

It was a wonderful first for me. I can now scratch it off my bucket list, but I would definitely to this again! Only downfall is that it didn't last long enough.

We loved the experience, but the staff was irritated because we were late (arrived at 315 for a 330 appt). We gave ourselves an extra 20 min when we left our condo (we were staying about an hour away) and the traffic was HORRIBLE throughout the entire PCB area! But the overall experience was great. I wish we were able to get there in time. I think it would’ve made the experience a little better.

We were with the harbor seals. They're so smart. We learned a lot. It was great to touch the seals. They're so cute! Our instructors we both great! Highly recommend you do this.

This was amazing!! Our 3 kids got to interact with 2 harbor seals in their habitat. They got to get in the water with them, hug, pet, and get a kiss from the seals. This was a definite highlight of our vacation!!

We were only 2 for the encounter! The trainers were fun and knowledgeable! We would recommend!
