I booked this excursion as soon as my trip was booked as I didn't want to take the chance of it being sold out while I was there. I booked the dolphin enounter for two people straight through their website and it was fast safe and efficent. Checking in was fast and our boat ride over was great with not... more

This was a great experience. The staff was informative and you could see that they really cared about their animals. We got to pet the dolphins, hug them, "dance" with them, touch their teeth. I was afraid that I'd see unhappy animals in penned up, unnatural habitats. Instead, we encountered happy animals that had lots of room to swim in... more

Honestly, I have been to Nassau twice now, both as cruise stops. The first time, we did not go much away from the port area, which I was not too pleased with. The area is a bit rundown and just left me a bit on edge. I did, however, enjoy Senor Frog's, which is in this area. But, I needed... more

My family is in town, so we took my 2 grandsons and 6 nephews to do the dolphin swim at Blue Lagoon Island. What a wonderful family experience. Adult and children had a blast playing, kissing and hugging the playful dolphins and then being pushed across the water by these wonderful and intelligent creatures. This was a great family bonding... more

As part of a ten day odyssey in Nassau and Paradise Island, my wife and I took our grandchildren and their parents to Dolphin Encounters for the "Dolphin Close Encounter". One of the son-in-laws made the reservations online and we simply walked from the Comfort Suites on Paradise Island, where we were staying, to the Dophin Encounters office near the... more

I would have give this a 5 star if it weren't for the staff/trainers/employees at this location. It would have been a better experience if the trainer that i got would crack a smile every now and then. It seems the locals at this island do not know what a smile can do for its customers/visitors. If it weren't for... more

This was indeed a once in a lifetime experience! We booked the 'encounter' at $85 per person (2 adults and a 6 year old), but my 3 year old was free. The ferry ride to the private island went right by the huge cruise ships, only adding to the adventure. Once there, we had a short orientation about the dolphins... more

I love this experience. It’ll be a wonderful memory for my lifetime. People working there were very nice and most importantly, the dolphins seemed very happy there. The trainer said the dolphins were not locked in by the fence, but the fence was used to prevent predictors. The dolphins could easily leap over and go out to the open water... more

I've always wanted to swim with a dolphin, but "down-graded" my dream so that I could take my 3 year old with me. We decided to try the close encounter at the Blue Lagoon. What a phenomenal experience. We both loved it and got so much from this experience. Our trainer was very informative, although she often sounded bored. I... more
