ENCOUNTER RATES AND TIMES

UP CLOSE WITH DOLPHINS

A SEA ANIMAL ENCOUNTERS ISLAND PROGRAM

This is not a swim program. This is an up-close experience that does not include touching the dolphins. You will be introduced to different dolphins, get a sense of their personalities, and learn to recognize one from the other. Learn amazing facts about dolphin behavior, biology, and adaptation behaviors up close.

OCEAN WALKER

Want to take a walk on the wet side? The innovative Ocean Walker allows you to walk slowly, rather like an astronaut, on the floor of the Open Ocean exhibit. Here you can gaze at the huge fish, rays and sand sharks as they mill slowly around you, completely unperturbed by your presence.

For more information, please call (031) 328 8052

SNORKEL LAGOON

Get up close and personal with some of the most exciting creatures found off the KZN coastline, as you explore the nooks and crannies of the Snorkel Lagoon. Float above the splendor of colour beneath you, as corals shine and fish gleam. You will leave feeling exhilarated.
