Dolphin Discovery and Ocean Riders are joining forces to bring you two of the most inspiring interactions with nature in Vallarta. The combination invites you to learn more about dolphins with Dolphin Discovery by jumping into their habitat and experiencing a truly unique experience while Ocean Riders takes you on an exhilarating ride chasing whales.
The first of the tour includes the dolphin encounter program where you will come as close as ever to these incredible animals. The program has been especially designed for kids and family to share this close encounter with nature. The dolphins will dance, sign, and give you a handshake and a peck on the cheek. While you’re in the water, you will be able to pet the dolphins and enjoy their antics. This provides a great opportunity to teach your kids about nature and dolphins. The Dolphin Discovery creatures will share with you their affection and fun energy while you enjoy the show from a platform. The water will cover half of your body, making it a very safe tour for kids and families.
The next adventure is the Whale Watching tour with Ocean Riders where a high-speed boat will take you and 14 more passengers across the Pacific Ocean to the whale’s natural habitat for you to observe these fantastic creatures up close. The special design of the boats allow them to move faster and safer than any other tour, improving the chances of seeing the whales and making the experience an even greater one. The route is not specified, but rather, our trained bilingual guides will follow nature and find the best route for the best show. Once the whales are found, we’ll follow their course as they travel through the Pacific Ocean.
