The Dolphin Encounter is a unique experience whose objective is getting to know and learning to respect this great marine mammal. This is a fun and educational interaction programme, prepared by Selwo Marina's Marine Mammals Department. Its key objectives are threefold: discovering, learning and having fun. The Dolphin Encounter is aimed at small groups, always accompanied by monitors, and takes place every day that the park is open. Want to know more? Read on and dive right into our marine world!
Dolphins are very social animals and who doesn't like making new friends? Through them, and with the help of the Selwo Marina staff, you will learn to respect and care for the marine world while experiencing moments that will remain in your memory forever And, of course, you can share and relive this experience with your loved ones by taking home some of the videos and photos of the Dolphin Encounter captured by our photography team during the activity.
In addition, by participating in the Dolphin Encounter, you will be contributing to the Monk Seal Conservation Project in Mauritania. This is the most endangered marine mammal on the planet and through the Parques Reunidos Foundation, we are contributing to improving the conservation status of this colony.
