Wish we had more time with the dolphins..Love our pictures that they took of us with the dolphins.. A little pricey though.. we also swam with the stingrays took lots of pictures.. we enjoyed our day.. but wish we could have left a little earlier then we did..Very hot and long day..we got done with both activities by 11:30 am and did not get picked back up until 3:00 pm.. We got a little bored.

This was by far the best time I had my whole vacation! The staff was very knowledgable and freindly. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and at ease. I would definalty recomend this to someone who wanted a good chance to swim with WILD dolphins! I'll defiantly do this again!

The Dolphin Adventure was quite fun. The venue is a bit less than what I had imagined. (I was thinking more along the lines of SeaWorld-esque.) Though the staff was quite courteous and the facility was clean. This was a good first-time adventure with dolphins. Would not recommend eating at their food court.

The Royal Dolphin swim was excellent! The staff truly loved their job and the dolphins. We learned about the dolphins while in the water swimming around with them. Then everyone got to experience two rides, one of the rides was holding onto two dolphins fins as they pulled you around the pool and other WOW...was the same two dolphins coming up behind you and pushing on your feet while you fly in the air like superman. As far as the Ray encounter..I wouldn't do in again. The Ray's stayed in a shallow area while we stood out in the deep part of the pool. They gave us snorkel geer to look at the fish, but you can only do that for so long. As we walk back out we got to touch the Ray's before getting out of the water.The trainer that was with us just didn't seemed to like her job as much as the other trainers we encountered while at the park. I would do the enounter that you wear the head geer (for air) they seemed to get to touch Rays, turtles and see all the fish.

My husband and I had previously snorkled which was a good thing as they had no time to teach you how to snorkle, therefore not for beginners. We did see spinner dolphins and swam with them for a few seconds. The dolphins did not stay put, so we were unable to hang out with them for very long. The remainder of the trip was great. We had the opportunity to have 3 drops in 3 different locations. One with the dolphins, then the remaining two with fish and sea turtles. Good times, good food, great photos! Bring a water camera! Would do this again.

I highly recommend the dolphin swim. If you are in Hawaii this is a must do.
I will never forget it. The crew were great, they enjoyed their jobs and
made sure that we enjoyed our trip. It was such a wonderful experience to
see AND swim with the dolphins, fish and turtles. I would do it again in a
heartbeat!

First, I just have to say there is nothing you can put into words to describe this experience. It's amazing. We chose the Royal Dolphin swim because I wanted two dolphins to swim with instead of one. I don't know if it made a difference but my husband said I never stopped smiling. I will say two things about this event. My husband is NOT a strong swimmer...so originally we were concerned about him going. I have to say, if you can't swim, you can still experience this. If you can dog paddle you should be fine. Everyone wears heavy duty life vests and floating is no problem even if you're a 220 lb man. So if you have concerns about that... DON'T let it stop you! The only other thing I will say is that we purchased the OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive DVD of our experience. I am a huge advocate of zoo's and aquariums and rarely feel as if the money I've spent is going to waste, however, this DVD was trash. I wasn't expecting much, but out of 2 DVD players and 2 laptops it will only play

I was a little nervous about taking a guided tour for snorkeling. However, my expectations were more than met. Captain Mark and First Mate Steve were incredible. They were the best. My wife and I had were in shock at how much fun we had. And just how amazing the crew were and all the amazing things they made sure we were able to experience. Thanks again.

We got to see dolphins from the boat and in the water as well! The snorkel spots were absolutely beautiful and you get to see so many different varities of marine life! The turtle cleaning station was probably the most amazing thing I have ever seen. There were literally 20 turtles resting all around and we got to take TONS of pictures!

The snorkeling on this trip was excellent. We were very close to the dolphins and the sea turtles. The staff were great as was the hospitality, equipment and food. The only down side was the transport. On the way we stopped of at pearl harbor to drop of a couple going there which seemed a bit out of the way. Again on the way back we stopped at pearl harbor to pickup a different couple and took a very odd route through Waikiki to pick up and drop off people who were not on the activity. a stressful end to an excellent day snorkeling.

I've always loved dolphins and now EVEN more. You have to try the ROYAL SWIM WITH THE DOLPHINS!!! By far, my favorite Hawaiian Acitity dot com activity of the trip!!! I'm not a good swimmer (can dog paddle) and wasn't sure about being in an 18-ft tank (1 M gallons of water with 3 dolphins). I had a life vest on. Awesome, awesome, awesome experience!! I touched, kissed, and posed with the dolphins. Other places in the world do that. But here you can lay on your belly, two dolphins swim up behind you and push your feet; it's like waterskiing by dolphins. I LOVED it!!!!!! Also, you float vertical in the water with your hands to your side and two dolphin swim to each side of you, sliding their fins into your hands and take you for a ride. Awesome experience, unique to Sea Life Park in Hawaii! I'd do it again in a heartbeat!!!! Try it! You'll love it!! Dolphins are fabulous creatures! And we bought a DVD of our experience so we can take it home and relive it again.
We also did the Sea T

The dolphin royal swim was excellent! I had an amazing time! It was worth every penny!
However, I did not appreciate the fact that my voucher stated the wrong pick-up time. As a result, I did not make it to the pick-up and ended up having to do the later session, which caused me to miss other plans I had for the day. In addition, I had to take a cab to and from Sea Life Park, as no shuttle transportation was available anymore.

Sea Life Park was very unique. Besides having the dolphins from the movie "50 FIRST DATES" the people and atmosphere is very unique. I would recommend to anyone that is going to the island of Oahu for the 1st 2nd or 3rd time. Very cool, and family friendly.

Kaleo and I had a great date the other day. He's such an astounding athlete, really energetic, a great swimmer, an amazing dancer, and just loves to give kisses! Granted his breath is rather fishy, his skin is quite rubbery, and his home is rather damp, but his million-dollar-smile completely won me over. What a treat it was since he is one of the best looking dolphins at Oahu's Sea Life Park!
Yup, I got to have a day of fun-in-the-sun with Sea Life Park's Dolphin Adventure and it was truly a wonderful experience. Not only did I get to see all of the marvelous marine creatures throughout the park, but I did one of the most in-depth interactive dolphin programs available in Hawaii.
After a short briefing, a small group of us were led to Dolphin Cove by a fabulous trainer. She immediately put us at ease as we made our way into the water and after telling us a couple of dos and don'ts, it was time to introduce ourselves to Kaleo. He is such a sweetheart and I had oodles of fun wit

My Mom and I went on the Sea Trek Adventure in April. We didn't know we would have to put on a wetsuit but it was totally worth it!!! It feels like you are scuba diving with so many sea creatures surrounding you. It was peaceful and exciting at the same time with the gentle manta rays gliding over your head and sea turtles swimming up to peer into your helmet! We even got to pet the silky belly of a GIANT Manta Ray - what an unforgettable experience!!!
