Palace
Resorts - the company that sets the standard in five-star,
all-inclusive resort accommodations –announces the addition of a
first rate dolphinarium at the brand’s signature property, Moon
Palace Golf & Spa Resort.
Part
of the resort’s multi-million dollar enhancement project, the
attraction is managed by an expert team of trainers from Dolphin
Discovery, members of the International Marine Animal Trainers
Association, with facilities in Isla Mujeres, Cozumel, Puerto
Aventuras and throughout the Caribbean. This latest addition to
Palace Resorts’ awe-inclusive offerings will allow guests the
unique opportunity to safely swim and interact with eight friendly
dolphins, in a state-of-the-art, saltwater aquarium that is more than
37,000 square feet in size. Best of all, guests can use the popular
Palace Resorts $1,500 Resort Credit offer to book this new activity*.
Starting
at $129 per person, visitors to Dolphin Discovery will participate in
a 15 minute orientation followed by an unforgettable adventure under
the supervision of knowledgeable trainers who will assure a pleasant
and fun-filled 40 minute experience for both guests and the dolphins.
Available up to five times a day for 10 to 15 guests at a time,
visitors will participate in an educational program where they learn
about these highly intelligent mammals before suiting up with a life
jacket, goggles and snorkel to engage in activities with the dolphins
that range from belly rides to feedings. Fun for guests of all ages,
children under the age of eight years old must be accompanied by an
adult.
The
attraction will offer three types of experiences for guests: Dolphin
Encounter, Royal Swim and Ultimate Dolphin Swim. The Dolphin
Encounter is ideal for families, with the opportunity to swim with
the dolphins and receive warm handshakes, hugs and kisses. The Royal
Swim is a dynamic program which includes the famous foot push, where
the dolphins swim underneath the guests and gently push them to the
surface by their feet. The interactive program also features the
dorsal tow, where two dolphins offer a ride of a lifetime, pulling
the guest with their sturdy dorsal fins. The Ultimate Dolphin Swim
offers free time with the dolphins, a peek at the friendly mammals
through submarine views and a belly ride.
“Moon

president, Palace Resorts. “As with all of our attractions, the
Palace team worked tirelessly to ensure that every facet of the new
