Sea Life Park Hawaii Dolphin Experiences & Day Pass

A Great Experience!

Reviewed by: Rich & April

My wife and I loved our experience with the dolphins. We did the Royal Swim which gave us 2 diffrent types of rides with the dolphins. We got the foot push and the dorsal fin ride. The dolphins were so great it was such a thrill to be so close to these magnificent creatures. The training staff was excellent in describing them to us and telling us what we were supposed to do. The only negative thing I could say about this experience is that I think that they should not charge you so much for the pictures of the experience. After spending 430.00 to do the swim I then had to shell out another 100 + dollars to get the pictures and when we went to get the pictures I was then informed that because of the possibility of girls losing the bottom of their swimsuits during the footpush ride they are not permitted to photograph that yet they can video it so that you have to buy the dvd that has the footpush ride on it. My thing is if you can video it why wouldnt you be able to photograph it. Basi

Sea Life Park Hawaii Dolphin Experiences & Day Pass

One of the highlights of Oahu!

Reviewed by: Marina

It was awesome. I've read some reviews stating that the staff seemed disinterested, but on the day I went, they were pretty great. The photos and video were ridiculously expensive, but I have to say that every moment was documented and beautifully. I did the dolphin royal swim (as part of the all day package) and while that was very expensive too, it was so worth it. The dolphins and wholphin (seriously, a wholphin - where are you going to have an opportunity to swim with one of those?!!!) were wonderful; the foot push made you feel like you were flying - it was my favorite. It was also great to interract with sea lions and rays and feed the turtles and just have the opportunity to come SO CLOSE to these wonderful animals.

Most amazing experience EVER!!!

Reviewed by: Mimi Harp

I just got back from my vacation in Hawaii and I still can't stop gushing over how incredible the dolphin royal swim is! We went with my mom and my brother, and this was by far the best activity we did while in Hawaii. You get to spend a lot of time with the dolphins since the trainers do a great job of splitting the activities between all of the participants. If you love dolphins, then this is definitely the tour for you!

Dolphin Swim Adventure

Reviewed by: BoiseNP

My husband, 8 year old daughter, and I attended this excursion on Saturday Aug 9 2008 as a part of our 10th anniversary celebration. We had paarticipated in a similiar experience on our honeymoon in Mexico 10 years ago and had high expectations because of our prior dolphin encounter. In all the park was small, and the cages a bit old and dirty. The animals seemed happy and the trainers showed a genuine love and bond with the animals. We purchased the photos, and the video but were disappointed that it was edited to the point that a lot of the dolphin action was left off the tape, and only the photo ops were really videoed. In all, a fun experience for first timers, or introducing children to the animals, but I would not recommend this if you have done it before...way too commercial.

Don't Expect Sea World

Reviewed by: From Western PA

This certainly isn't Sea World. It is a very small (quaint) park. If you have had the experience to swim with dolphins like I had in Mexico (ocean evironment, large swim area for dolphin, small group), this certainly isn't the same.

It is a bit expensive, but one of the cheaper ones. It is in a small tank environment with about 4 groups of 10. Each group does have their own dolphin. It is a quick kiss, belly rub, and belly ride. They really just want to sell you pictures or a cd. My younger children enjoyed it (10 and 11), but they have never done it before. Don't have pictures, because only their photographers can get close enough to take any. I did enjoy the drive out, and the scenery.

Sea Life Park Hawaii Dolphin Experiences & Day Pass

Amazing!

Reviewed by: Lisa T.

My husband and I did this activity with our 16-month-old son. And we all loved it. Seeing the excitement on my son's face was worth the money. Being able to touch the dolphins and seeing what amazing creatures they are was an experience I feel my family and I will never forget. They took our photo with the dolphin and a video and both were super expensive. We did purchase it because it was quite an experience.

Buster was our dolphin and Carly was his trainer and both were fantastic. We learned a great deal from the trainer and they brought out another dolphin that was in the movie "50 First Dates".

After the encounter we enjoyed the rest of the park. The dolphin show was just as great and I got some really great video too. All the shows they had there were a lot of fun. I would definitely go again.

First time dolphin encounter

Reviewed by: Christina

I had a great time!! The dolphins seemed to have a great time too! I thought the trainer we had was EXCELLENT, and had great customer service! One thing I would recommend to first timers though, is bring your own transportation...we could not imagine waiting there for others to finish their tour of the facility...it is pretty sparse!

Sea Trek

I have a wonderful time where I went underwater with Sea Trek at Sea Life Park in Hawaii. This is perfect opportunity for both of them. I really enjoyable where I went underwater with the helmet on. I can barely breath very well. I petting with sea Turtles and etc. It was incredible where I stay down for in between 10 or 15 minutes. I would like to says thanks for Mark & Dan our opportunity to me that I went underwater at the park. I will epxect to see you again in the future. This is my first time where I went underwater. So otherwise, I will have a nice contribution with the staff who have a good support for me.

Dolphins!!!

Reviewed by: Caroline Jacobson

Hello everybody! My family and myself will always have the best memories with our experience with the most beautiful animal existing : The dolphin.
My only comment not too positive will be for the welcome we have received by the staff there. Very cold, arrogant except for only ONE trainer: Jennifer! thanks Jen for your kindness on my son's birthday! otherwise the rest of the staff NEEDS really to be improved...thank God that the experience makes it bearable.
We will come back because what is the most important??? The dolphins!....and believe me...their attitude was much more pleasant and kind and sweet than the humans there ;-))
I recommend to all the experience - this will stay for all my family the greatest memories in Hawaii.
Aloha!!

A Royal Time

Reviewed by: Ambre

The Royal Dolphin swim was amazing. It is a little pricey, but definitely worth it. The memories will last a lifetime. There was a dorsal fin pull with two dolphins, but the best part was the foot push: laying in the water, two dolphins push their noses on your feet and make you ski across the water. It was so much fun, I had to get the video to document our time spent! The water is a little cold, but the adrenaline from being so close to the dolphins will warm you up! My 9-year old enjoyed this, perhaps even more than myself! I only wish it lasted longer!

Dolphin Encounter

Reviewed by: Julie

Being up close and personal with such a beautiful animal and to touch them and learn about them in more detail was well worth the cost. I would do it again.

My only complaint is that our bystanders could not get close enough to get any real good pictures. The only good pictures is the ones you could purchase from Sea Life Park.

Dolphins

Reviewed by: The Bradys

I had a great time swimming and playing with the dolphins. I not only swam/played with them I got to kiss/hug and pet them. The dorsal tow was superb and the foot push fun. They video tape and take pictures of the interactions with the dolphins. The video is about 10minutes long and you can choose what pictures you want, there are four to choose from.

very cool experience!

Reviewed by: mrrockydog

I have done two dolphin swims (both in Cancun, Mexico) but not a sea lion swim. Although the dolphin swim to me was more exciting, the sea lion swim was still great! They also offer dolphin swims but I chose the sea lion swim this time and I was not disappointed. One good thing about it is that there were only three other people besides me and my son so we got to learn a lot more and spend a lot more time. The dolphin swims always included a dozen or more people, but I'm sure that at Sea Life Park this wouldn't be a problem because Sea Life Park is smaller than the other places that offer this type of thing. And that it better for us!
