Tour Summary
Anguilla-St. Martin Royal Dolphin Swim Program
Are you ready to make your dream of swimming with dolphins come true? Enjoy the experience of a lifetime with our Royal Dolphin Swim Program. Located off the beautiful beaches of Anguilla-St. Martin, you and your family will have an unforgettable adventure as you swim and interact with these sweet and highly intelligent animals.
This adventure takes place in shallow water and is designed for people of all ages. Our certified trainers will introduce you to our amazing dolphins in their peaceful habitat. You will learn hand signals and positive reinforcement techniques used by our trainers that will allow you to also communicate with these friendly creatures.
Your Royal Dolphin Swim Program will begin with a brief, educational orientation. You will learn how our wonderful team takes care of these charming mammals and discover many amazing facts about them. Our small group sizes guarantee a special experience for everyone. You will have the incredible opportunity to receive a hug, kiss, and handshake from our sweet dolphins.
Our educational, hands-on contact program is an unforgettable experience. Some of the most unique behaviors you’ll experience include the dorsal tow and the foot push. While holding on to the dolphin’s dorsal fin, you will be propelled across the surface of the water with your new friend. You will also feel like you are flying when you experience our famous foot push. Two of our dolphins will lift you out of the water as you stand on them and they swim you around the marina.
