Dolphin Cove

Fantastic experience: Had the most amazing experience trainer ( Alisa ) I one of the most amazing persons to work they’re very bright and educated towards her work she makes it seem like it’s not work for her but a passion it’s so nice to see people like her work with animals

Fantastic experience: Dolphin cove has underwater view, better than Nursery. There's plenty of them and you can see them pretty close.

Fantastic experience: Staff are true heros for the animales at this park

Fantastic experience: There is a huge pool and lots of dolphins right here, you can visit them under the water, they looks very cute

Fantastic experience: Great time friendly staff . the dolphins were well taken care of.

Positive experience: Discovery Cove is my all time favorite place to go for rest and relaxation. I try to go at least once a year, sometimes with others, sometimes alone just for a self care day. It truly feels like a vacation when you arrive here and I can leave the everyday worries/ life stress behind. I don't have to plan anything, think about where to eat, wait in long lines... I just come and enjoy! I have always loved and respected the ocean and marine life. I would live by the water if I could. The Grand Reef used to be my favorite part of the park. Swimming with the fish and stingrays feels magical to me and a main reason I fell in love with the park itself. Due to what I'm sure are liability concerns after some unfortunate circumstances/ events they now require everyone to wear life vests in the reef. For me at least, it does dull some of that "magic" and the feeling of adventure and freedom the reef always gave me before. The life vests are uncomfortable and you're not able to dive down between the rocks and it limits movement. I personally think they should have a waiver system for 16 and up that you can sign to allow for the choice of no life vests for the above reasons. I still love Discovery Cove but the reef isn't near as fun anymore. Current reef rating with vests 3/ 5. Park itself 5/5. Overall rating 4/5.

Negative experience: They over booked dolphins when we booked super early then they didn’t give us a refund and lied about it saying the dolphins weren’t doing good when we walk over and see people swimming with dolphins. Customer service was horrible they made us wait like 1 hour! Never come here!!!!

Fantastic experience: You can see and feed the Dolphins here, There is an overlook to this large enclosure and there is an underwater observation room.

Fantastic experience: I can spend hours watching the dolphins. It was definitely a nice treat to watch them play.

Fantastic experience: So much fun for the family, up close experience with Dolphins and their trainers.

Positive experience: 6/12/23. Nice spot to watch the dolphins swim and play.

Negative experience: 7/29/2023: Although it's a Saturday, it is the worst experience throughout the whole park. Sea world oversold!! Customer service was awful and park restroom were dirty! Guest relations took 1 hour 22 min to get to me due to the longest line with just 3 staff working. I asked one of the employee and he told me 4 people call out!! Is that allowed? Management needs serious operation assessment! The supervisor....feel sorry for her, indicated she doesn't even work there but helping out because the Guest Relations mana her called out as well!! Seriously, who are the CEOs of Sea World? Is this the type of services you provide charging guests who traveled far to come to Orlando? Don't ruin the City's reputation! Disney and Universal by far exceeded customer services, food, cleanliness, and amenities! Sea World need to assess the situation seriously on what happened to the park today, 7/29/2023!

Positive experience: Such a great place to enjoy watching dolphins be dolphins - I just wish SeaWorld would reinstall benches so there was a place for parents to sit while their kids enjoy the views

Positive experience: The dolphin encounter experience was unforgettable. I had an amazing time being up close to the dolphins, and our tour guide was very informative however, I paid over $100 for 2 persons, and the encounter was less than 10 minutes.

Positive experience: Beautiful giant fish tank for dolphins to enjoy a natural-like environment. They look happy and relax, so you admiring this friendly water creatures.

Fantastic experience: This was a bucket list experience for our family. Such a wonderful thing to see your kids smile so big, and your entire family. You really get the chance to connect with these intelligent animals, and even learn a few signals, as if you were a real love fe marine biologist, working with these beautiful mammals every day. Highly recommend adding this to your itinerary, if you are planning to go to Sea World. We will definitely do this again.

Negative experience: It's important to educate people about Dolphins and the experience is good. However, the pool seems way too small for the size of them.

Fantastic experience: Coolest place in the park!

Fantastic experience: Worth the price, awesome day, fantastic things to do like swim with the dolphins, and so much more you will love it!! Great lunch included !!! It's called Discovery Cove not Dolphin Cove as listed above.

Fantastic experience: This is the best place I have gone so far in Orlando. Spent around 240 usd for this for a day. But I feel it’s totally worth. Here are the things you can do, 1) you can go for snorkeling which is amazing, lot of stingrays but there there sharks and other beautiful fishes which just makes a way thru your legs. 2) dolphin time- they let you touch play with dolphins. But the instructor will be there. This lasts for fifteen minutes. 3) there is a beach which has waves which take you for about four kilometers. You can carry safety stuff if you don’t know to swim. Apart from this they provide you food and snacks, be early there. And one more thing is they will give you swim suit. I remember, since I don’t know this, I went to Walmart to get swimsuits. I don’t want that to happen to you guys.

Positive experience: Guests arent allowed to have contact with the dolphins anymore unless they pay an extra fee.

Fantastic experience: Touched the dolphin for the first time!
