Must do royal package!!!
Reviewed by: Moe, 2013/08/28If you are going to do this, do the royal package!! We had a smaller crowd so waiting for your turn on the dolphin ride was great. And the dolphin ride on this package beats anything else. The sea lion was very cool. It was great to actually feel them and even play with them in the water. The sting rays were cool too just be mindful they are intimidating at first but still cool. The dolphin show was great at the ocean theater. The only negative side is the park is smaller than expected. We wished we stayed for the luau but after being there from 8-445 we were exhausted.

Best time of my life!
Reviewed by: R Garcia, 2013/07/01It has always been a dream of mine to swim and interact with dolphins, and this exceeded my expectations! I was absolutely in heaven during my entire time in the water with them. I got a "dolphin duo" dorsal fin ride and foot push, kisses, and plenty of hands on time. I then got to do hugs and kisses, feeding, and lots of hands on time with the sea lions. This was the highlight of my visit to Hawaii and I would LOVE to do it over and over again!

Reviewed by: Sergio Delgadillo, 2013/06/30This was amazing!!! I have 4 daughters, a15 year old, 9, year old, 2 year old, and a 6 month old. Alan (customer service) did an awesome job in figuring out the schedules for all of us to enjoy this trip without having to get my 6 month old in the waters. We all had a great time, my kids loved all the activities that where do done. My kids can't wait to do it again!

Very fun
Reviewed by: Phil, 2013/06/27This was one of our highlights in Hawaii and our teenagers loved it. The royal package is pricey, but will create life long memories if you can do it. We did feel bad for lesser dolphin programs, as that group of 30 or so were on the other side of the pool doing their program while watching our group of 8 having the time of our lives having a much more interactive time with dolphins. The sea lion and ray encounter were fun as well. It felt like we were animal trainers for a day. You must purchase any photos they take, but the photos turned out great and will be life long keepsakes.

Fun Attraction for All!
Reviewed by: Lisa W., 2013/01/06My husband and I booked a tour to the Sea Life park and we had a great time! There was plenty for us to do there with just the general admission but they also have options where you can swim with dolphins or sea lions.
We spent the day watching the shows and checking out the different animals. We even got to feed the sea turtles and pet a 3 week old sea turtle which was really fun. There's great views of the ocean from the park, and there's a beach within walking distance if you have time to check it out too. We didn't have time to go to that beach but it looked nice and a lot less crowded than Waikiki.

Sea Life Adventure
Reviewed by: Linda, 2013/01/03WOW!!!! Had a blast ~ I was the participant & hubby the photographer!! The staff were fabulous, so friendly & informative ~ so lucky to work with these amazing animals! The rays experience was a bit disappointing, the tank is pretty small ~ good thing there were only 3 humans & the staff in the tank plus there's not a whole lot you can 'do' with rays!! I did 3 activities, dolphins, sea loin & rays. I think here should be a price break on the photos & DVD when you do multiple encounters. Overall it was great fun & I would do it again!!

Reviewed by: Linda, 2012/07/31My husband and I took our 16 year old daughter for the Royal Dolphin swim at Sea Life Park and it was just amazing!! She absolutely loved it and I would highly recommend it. She still raves to all her friends back here in Australia how awesome it was. A real treat was having the Wolphin and the Dolphin as part of her ride which was great and the photos that were taken will be treasured. thankyou.

Better than expected
Reviewed by: Lars D, 2011/10/07The staff was very professional and everybodys individual needs were catered to. Everybody got the opportunity to pet the dolphins and ride on its belly. The dolphins did exactly as they were told (sometimes they had to be told two times).
This is a once in a lifetime experience and being so close to a big (because they were very big, bigger than I expected) mammal and seeing how gentle they can be, was fantastic.
There were also shows with dolphins, sea lions, turtles and penguins.

Dreamt of this my whole life
Reviewed by: Maj Juul, 2011/07/13Ever since I was a little girl, I have dreamt of swimming with dolphins. The dream came true combined with a sea lion and ray encounter. The fascinating and fun dolphin and wholphin, the cheeky sea lions and the mysterious rays are absolutely worth a visit whether you are a family, an individual, a couple, grown up or child... Just do it.

Dolphin Encounter
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2011/06/20My kids and grandkids loved the experience. They all said it was one of the best things they did while in Oahu. The 5 childrens' ages were 12, 10, 9, 6, & 5 and 4 adults. The photos and video were wonderful! The extra value of the free video with a copy of your web page ad was great. My family will be talking about it for years! Mahalo!

First time Dolphin Swim
Reviewed by: Krystal, 2010/08/02My husband and I were on our honeymoon. I have always dreamed of swimming with dolphins, and couldn't wait to experience this. They sent us to a pool in the back of the park and gave us life jackets. We then got into the VERY COLD water and onto this platform. The water eventually warmed up, and everything was fine. The trainer showed us the dolphin and let us pet her. We then got to put on masks and watch her do tricks under water. She asked my husband and I go first. So, we swam out into the deeper water and off the platform. I crossed my arms while my husband gave an arm signal for the dolphin to pick him up. Riding the dolphin was just surreal, it's something that you probably only get to do once in a lifetime. It was definitely worth every EXPENSIVE penny! But, once you've done it already, I wouldn't pay to do it again.

Unforgettable Experience
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2010/05/18The Hawaiian Ray Encounter at Sea Life Park was a really memorable part of our vacation. We actually got to interact with stingrays and observe them. They just glide through the water with little effort. We went snorkeling multiple times, but this was the first time we actually saw stingrays.

Gotta love the wolphin!
Reviewed by: Raven Girl, 2010/04/14We did three parts with manta rays, dolphins and sea lions. It was nice going on a Tuesday as 2 of the 3 activities it was only me and my son and the 3rd the group was nice and small. We actually got to get a belly ride from the wolphin (dolphin/ whale hybrid). She was very cute and sweet. The trainers all took time to explain things and didn't just say no you can't do that, they always explained why it would be bad for the animal. They took time to talk about the animals themselves and seemed genuine about their jobs.

A Great Experience!
Reviewed by: Rich & April, 2009/11/13My wife and I loved our experience with the dolphins. We did the Royal Swim which gave us 2 diffrent types of rides with the dolphins. We got the foot push and the dorsal fin ride. The dolphins were so great it was such a thrill to be so close to these magnificent creatures. The training staff was excellent in describing them to us and telling us what we were supposed to do. The only negative thing I could say about this experience is that I think that they should not charge you so much for the pictures of the experience. After spending 430.00 to do the swim I then had to shell out another 100 + dollars to get the pictures and when we went to get the pictures I was then informed that because of the possibility of girls losing the bottom of their swimsuits during the footpush ride they are not permitted to photograph that yet they can video it so that you have to buy the dvd that has the footpush ride on it. My thing is if you can video it why wouldnt you be able to photograph it. Basi

One of the highlights of Oahu!
Reviewed by: Marina, 2009/11/11It was awesome. I've read some reviews stating that the staff seemed disinterested, but on the day I went, they were pretty great. The photos and video were ridiculously expensive, but I have to say that every moment was documented and beautifully. I did the dolphin royal swim (as part of the all day package) and while that was very expensive too, it was so worth it. The dolphins and wholphin (seriously, a wholphin - where are you going to have an opportunity to swim with one of those?!!!) were wonderful; the foot push made you feel like you were flying - it was my favorite. It was also great to interract with sea lions and rays and feed the turtles and just have the opportunity to come SO CLOSE to these wonderful animals.
