Discovery Cove

Discovery Cove is ranked #3 in the United State’s top attractions, according to tripadvisor.com. And no wonder– it gives you the chance to swim with dolphins, glide with sting rays, and view tropical birds, among many other unique attractions. The prices can seem a bit steep, but they include a full day at the park, all you can eat or drink– including alcoholic beverages– use of a mask and vest or wetsuit, and a snorkel to keep. Discovery Cove requires a reservation, and only 1,000 guests are allowed in the park at any given time. If the price still seems a bit high, reservations without the dolphin pool have a lower rate.Check out our various deals and packages to make the most out of your Orlando vacation without being heavy on the budget.

	Dolphin Swim Home to 30 striking bottlenose dolphins, Dolphin Swim is a uniquely memorable experience. A brief orientation in their private cabanas offers a video presentation on a range of dolphin characteristics, as well as how to use hand signals and positive reinforcement to interact with the dolphins. Then you and a group of up to eight guests will meet the beautiful inhabitants and experience an exclusive 30 minutes getting to know your dolphin, including one-on-one swim through the scenic waters of the lagoon.
	Coral Reef Take a dip in a rare coral reef for a swim you’re not likely to forget. Practice your snorkeling through a vast and colorful reef, the remains of a shipwreck, and captivating grottos. Encounter countless species of exotic fish, giant rays, and- if your attention wanders- you might even catch a peek of a shark or a barracuda, gliding safely behind protective glass.
	Tropical River A warm, freshwater river that drifts past waterfalls, a rainforest, and more. It glides guests into the aviary, where birds are left to fly freely, kept in by the waterfalls.
	Ray Lagoon Snorkel with rays up to 4 feet wide. Southern and cow-nose rays, soft and smooth to the touch, are large, peaceful creatures that will add to your experience at Discovery Cove.
	Aviary Discovery Cove’s Aviary has over thirty species of birds. These 250-plus birds, kept in the aviary by beautiful waterfalls, will come to you and feed from your open hands, filling the air with color and sound.
	Resort Pool The large pool has both a shallow and a deep end, as well as grottos and waterfalls. It runs a constant, year-round eighty degrees.
