Swim with Dolphins in Cancun and Riviera Maya

To swim with the dolphins in Cancun is one of the most memorable things you can do.

Those that have done it often find it an emotional and humbling experience and there are few that regret it.

The normal ratio is around 5 people to each dolphin and as this is a popular activity, particularly during peak season, availability can be limited.

It is advisable to reserve this trip before you go or as soon as you arrive to avoid disappointment.

There are now multiple venues offering dolphin swims from within the heart of the Cancun Hotel Zone, Isla Mujeres, several locations in the Riviera Maya, including Xcaret and Xel Ha ecoparks, and also on the island of Cozumel.

Several different programs are available which allow different levels of interactivity and amounts of time with the dolphins.

The links in our handy guide above detail 20 different options and 9different locations. The dolphin swim options range from 30 minute interaction sessions right through to trainer for a day.

The dolphinariums are designed to reproduce natural conditions, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience the dolphins in an ocean like habitat.

Experience the dorsal tow where the dolphin pulls you through the water whilst you hold onto their fin, or the foot push where the dolphins lift you out of the water with their noses. Watch in amazement as the dolphins jump high our of the water over your head.
