We had a wonderful time here doing the dolphin swim experience. The trainer Wade was so patient with our boys, giving them the chance to do the various activities in their own time, while also training the young dolphin at the same time. We spent so much more time than anticipated with the dolphins doing fun shakes, kisses, getting pulled by them, touching them and making the dolphins imitate us.
It felt like a beautiful place for all the animals there, the macaws, tortoise and seals.
The staff was simply wonderful and made us feel so welcome. They seemed keen on getting the message across that this work they do is important and I hope our boys take that home with them as well.
Can’t recommend this center enough.

Such a wonderful experience doing the dolphin encounter. We got up close and personal with two dolphins in a group of 6. It was an experience I'll remember forever. Photos were quite expensive so I would recommend someone who doesn't do the experience take some for you. There are 27 dolphins there, including a few calves, so it was super easy to find dolphins to watch in the lagoons!

This place is a must-visit! Both adults and kids will love it. We went with our twin girls and they were absolutely thrilled. The dolphins were incredible. The staff is super friendly and always happy to answer any questions. Thanks to the whole team for their hard work! The park is perfect, with both outdoor and indoor activities. The kids' play area is amazing! 10/10, would highly recommend.

I recently worked with the DRC team to host my daughter’s 7th birthday party. It could not have gone better! From the initial planning with Vicki and Angie, everyone was very professional, accommodating and just a joy to work with. I viewed the AC meeting space prior to the party day and knew it would be a welcomed relief in August heat. The kids utilized the splash pad, had lunch in the AC room, followed by cake and icecream and then it was time to play with the dolphins. If I could give the team 20 stars I would. The overall process was so organized and just a pleasure. Money well spent! And all the kids had a blast! Parents did too!

This is the only place to swim with or visit the dolphins. These individuals are so passionate and caring of the dolphins and sea life in general. They rescue dolphins, birds, turtles, and sea lions etc. If you choose to swim with the dolphins you will have a life altering experience. I can't say enough about the people and the atmosphere. A definite recommendation!

Loved every moment of the place. The 2 shows we watched were so entertaining and informative that display the personality and talents of the dolphins in residence. Beautifully maintained. You can tell the staff live the place and love what they do. We met the founder and loved his story which made us want to support the place more. They are doing good work here. A wonderful place to visit and support

I did the hour long dolphin experience, and it was amazing seeing the dolphins. There are 27 dolphins, if I remember correctly, many born in the research center while others were rescued. You can tell that the dolphins are happy and like the trainers, so as an animal lover, I love to see that. As for the experience, I wish there was more interaction with the dolphins. You spend more time waiting for the other people to take their turn than the actual experience. Other than that, they have a photographer there to catch the moments you get with the dolphins for purchase later as well as a gift shop. It was a clean place and it looked like the people who worked there wanted to be there so that made me happy. I would recommend visiting!

Ultimately, there is no need to fool yourself about “the animals are doing well”. These are incredibly great, sensitive animals that simply live in captivity here. With a prognosis of “life imprisonment”. Animals that like to travel miles in the wild, hunt their own food and choose their own group.And here they are not "just" locked up, but even forced to perform ridiculous tricks for the tourists and let them grope them.Please don't support something like this! This is also how you don't teach your children to interact appropriately with animals.Just think about how you would feel if you were caught and then locked up for life...

I had been to Dolphin Researcher on two occasions previously. This time my animal loving daughter got to swim with the dolphins and learn about dolphins. Great opportunity to get up close to these beautiful animals. You must visit if you are in Marsthon!

A good facility that takes care of dolphins. You can walk to several pools where there are dolphins. The extras such as meet and greet with a dolphin or painting with a dolphin cost extra and unfortunately, in my opinion, they are not always worth it if you have to be careful about money. During the normal tour, which is included in the price, you will learn a lot and also see some of the dolphins' tricks.

A truly wonderful place. Our child really enjoyed the researcher for a day experience. He learned a lot about dolphin behavior and health and even helped collect data, including when a pod of wild dolphins swam up to the lagoon. An unforgettable experience!
