DELPHINUS Dolphin Experience in PUERTO MORELOS: Location, Prices, Water and More! Know Before You Go

Описание: This video is for informational purposes only. Our opinions are our own based on our experience. We are not sponsored and we pay for all of our own trips and experiences.

Delphinus offers several packages to suit a variety of preferences at different price points. .
It is open to most ages and abilities but you must be 1 m tall and children under 8 must have an accompanying and paying adult.
Everyone is required to wear a life jacket.
Remember that time in the water with the dolphins is divided among your group. A 30-minute session with 10 people means each person has very limited individual interaction time. Smaller groups or private sessions might be worth considering if you want a more intimate experience.

One thing Delphinus emphasizes is their commitment to ocean wildlife conservation. Their programs aim to educate visitors about marine ecosystems and the role we play in protecting them. Before anyone enters the water, you’ll attend an informational class that covers water safety and how to interact with the dolphins responsibly. You’ll also be required to rinse off in their showers to remove any chemicals, like non-reef-safe sunscreen, that could harm the dolphins.

Delphinus provides a range of amenities to make your visit more comfortable, including lockers, showers, towels, dressing rooms, a snack shop, and a photo store to capture your special moments. There’s also a gift shop with souvenirs to remember your experience. If you’re not participating in the water activities but want to watch, there are comfortable lounge chairs with large umbrellas for shade.

Unfortunately, you can’t bring your phone or camera into the enclosure. Delphinus offers personalized photo services for a fee—which, let’s be honest, can add up quickly. While these photos are high-quality, keep the additional cost in mind when planning your budget.

Now, let’s talk about what it’s really like. While the website showcases crystal-clear water, the reality was a little different. The enclosures had murkier water with some seaweed.
During our package, the group stood on a submerged dock while the dolphins performed tricks directed by the instructors. A standout moment was the one-on-one time with the dolphins. Whether it was a dorsal fin ride or a water push, this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for most people in our group, and they were deeply grateful for the chance to interact with these majestic creatures.

It’s worth noting that opinions in our group varied on the ethics of keeping dolphins in captivity. Personally, I’m not a fan of captivity, but I appreciate that Delphinus collaborates with universities and focuses on education and conservation. I also appreciate their work with children with Autism and how Dolphin therapy. Their efforts aim to inspire people to care for the ocean and its inhabitants.
If you have ethical concerns, there are alternatives to consider where Dolphins are in not in captivity.
Delphinus does offer a shuttle service for around $10 per person, depending on your location. BUT you can only book transportation for those participating in the experience. Those in your group who only want to observe are not eligible for the transportation so may want to arrange your own transportation if you have someone who just wants to watch the dolphins.
