Delphinus Dreams Cancun

Are you wondering what makes Dreams Cancun Resort & Spa so special? There are many different reasons, such as the fact that our resort is located in the heart of the beautiful Cancun beach area (which was recently named the #20 Beach in the World by TripAdvisor) and that our guests experience Unlimited-Luxury® from the moment they step on our property. However, one of the unique attributes that makes Dreams Cancun a memorable family destination is Delphinus Dreams Cancun, which is located right on our property.

Delphinus Dreams Cancun offers our guests the incredible opportunity to swim with dolphins in a natural environment surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Mexican Caribbean. Each day a limited number of guests may actually swim and play with live dolphins in our sea water lagoon.

The Delphinus experience includes a brief orientation and 45 minutes of swimming, longer than any other swim with the dolphins experience, for $159 per person. Adults and children at least 3’6” tall may swim alone with the dolphins. Smaller children may participate if accompanied at all times by a paying adult. Lifejackets are provided and swimming ability is not necessary. Expert trainers guide your experience and assure the safety of you and the dolphins.

Dolphin Experiences take place four times each day at 9 am, 10:30 am, noon and 1:30 pm. Whether you partake or just watch, this experience is simply fascinating and something your family won’t want to miss!
