Does playing with dolphins sound like your idea of a good time? If so, you’re in luck because Mississippi is home to Ocean Adventures – a marine park that specializes in up-close encounters with a variety of sea life, including dolphins. Take a look:
Interacting with dolphins doesn’t require travelling to a faraway tropical land. Nope; all it takes is a visit to Ocean Adventures in Gulfport.
Underwater viewing areas make it easy to see the below-the-surface lives of animals. But close-up, unique views aren’t the only way to get close to animals at Ocean Adventures.
For those who really want to get up-close to some dolphins, the Dolphin Encounter is the way to go. This adventure actually involves getting into the water and swimming with dolphins.
Regardless of which adventure you choose, all proceeds go the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies. So you’ll get to have fun and support a good cause – what more could you ask for?!
