Do you actually get to swim with dolphins at Discovery Cove?
You don’t really swim with the dolphin but you do get to hang on to one and get pulled fairly briefly by one. You definitely get very close up with your dolphin and get to pet them.

Dolphins in the wild are generally friendly and curious toward humans, often approaching boats and swimmers. However, they are wild animals and can be unpredictable. While aggressive encounters are rare, it’s important to respect their space and not attempt to touch or feed them during dolphin tours.The Dolphin Encounter program is designed for all ages! Meet these fantastic animals as you interact with them in shallow waters. The interaction takes place on an underwater platform, so you don’t have to worry if you’re not a swimmer.Wearing swim-friendly attire is a must if you might get in the water for a closer dolphin interaction. A swimsuit paired with a lightweight cover-up or a quick-drying, sundress-like option is excellent for the ladies. This way, you’ll be ready to jump in at a moment’s notice.Both humans and dolphins are mammals. Although sea water acts as an effective disinfectant, interaction with wild dolphins may result in disease transfer. These may present serious health threats to dolphins and humans alike. Finally, swimming with dolphins represents harassment – you do not want to get a fine.
