For anyone who's wished to be in the water with a dolphin, this is a dream come true. Home to a host of dolphins and sea lions, this research center offers you the opportunity to swim with dolphins, work with them on a submerged platform and participate in training programs. Various restrictions on age and height exist, so it would be wise to give them a call to see what program best suits you or your children. Some programs require a 30-day advanced notice. For prices and further information, visit their website.
