Pattaya Dolphinarium: A Dolphin and Sea Lion Show for the Whole Family
Just outside the city, the Pattaya Dolphinarium is a favourite outing for families. In an indoor, air-conditioned arena, bottlenose dolphins and sea lions perform an energetic show full of jumps, music and tricks, three times a day. After each show, visitors can even swim with the dolphins in the same pool.
What to Expect
The show: about 50 minutes of performances by dolphins and sea lions, with jumps, games and interaction with the trainers. Children love it.
Swimming with dolphins: a session right after each show, in the same pool and with the same dolphins, for children from 6 years old and adults.
Photos with the dolphins: photo opportunities with the dolphins at the end of the show.
Choose your seat: regular, deluxe and VIP front-row seating are available.
Indoor and air-conditioned: a welcome break from the heat, whatever the time of day.
