This 45-minute activity takes place at Bailey’s Key, a 2-minute boat ride from Anthony’s Key Resort and RIMS (Roatan Institute for Marine Sciences). After a short orientation, you are introduced to two friendly bottlenose dolphins, who greet you with a handshake, a kiss and a smile.

Then it’s time to swim and play with them, and to live the “Foot Push”, the most thrilling moment of the experience: the dolphins push you by the feet above and around the water’s surface. There is also the “Dorsal Ride”, a relaxing ride around the lagoon holding on to their smooth dorsal fins. To finish, the dolphins put on a show with water behaviors, vocal skills, tail splashes and applause.

  • Participants must be 5 years or older.
  • Ages 5–13 must be accompanied by a paying adult.
