Alanya Swimming with Dolphins Tour

Located 20 km from Alanya, Sealanya Dolphinpark offers an unforgettable experience where you can swim with dolphins and enjoy various activities. This is a perfect tour for families, allowing children and adults to have a fantastic time together.

These intelligent and affectionate marine friends will amaze you with their cleverness and emotional depth!

 

Who Can Swim with Dolphins?

The Alanya dolphin swimming tour is affordable and open to participants of all ages. However, there are some restrictions for specific conditions:

✅ Children under 3 years old are not allowed in the dolphin pool.
✅ Children aged 4-6 can enter the pool only with their parents.
✅ Pregnant women are not permitted to enter the pool.
✅ Individuals with epilepsy or Down syndrome should not enter the pool (except for therapeutic sessions).
✅ People with open wounds are not allowed in the pool.

 

Do You Need to Know How to Swim?

It is not mandatory to be a good swimmer, but basic swimming skills are preferred. If you do not know how to swim at all, you can stay in the shallow areas of the pool and still enjoy interacting with the dolphins.

No worries! Dolphins naturally develop strong bonds with humans. They will adapt to your pace, help you stay afloat, and never swim faster than you can handle. Additionally, an instructor will always be there to assist you.

 

Is Swimming with Dolphins Safe?

Dolphins are highly intelligent, emotional, and social creatures. Trained dolphins pose no threat and form meaningful interactions with humans.

🔹 They constantly observe their surroundings and follow trainer commands.
🔹 They love interacting with people and may even respond with sounds when you talk to them.
🔹 They match your swimming speed and behave in a friendly manner.

This makes swimming with dolphins a safe and enjoyable experience.

 

Your First Dolphin Swimming Experience

For first-timers, entering the pool with dolphins can be a thrilling moment. Being in the water with such large marine animals might feel overwhelming at first, but you will soon realize that they are as friendly and affectionate as cats and dogs.

🔸 Always treat them with kindness and respect.
🔸 Avoid sudden or aggressive movements.
🔸 If you approach them gently, they will return the favor.

Dolphins often greet visitors by swimming toward them. This moment will likely be one of the most unforgettable highlights of your experience!
