Texas Aquarium: Dolphin Encounters at the Texas State Aquarium

Play With the Dolphins at Texas State Aquarium

Don’t you just love dolphins? They’re such friendly, gentle creatures; never harmful and always ready to amuse. Did you know that dolphins are also known to save human beings from shipwrecks? For some reason, these animals act like guardians to people lost at sea.

I’ve always had a fascination with dolphins. As a child, my room was littered with dolphin paraphernalia: shirts, posters, bracelets, earrings. My one great dream was to actually be able to swim with a dolphin, like that kid in the movie Flipper.

Want to swim alongside a bottlenose dolphin? Want to get the opportunity to feed it? At the Texas State Aquarium, all your dolphin dreams will come true with their interactive dolphin experiences.

Enjoy a Day With the Dolphins at the Texas State Aquarium

Deckside Dolphin Encounter
Get to feed, touch and play with a dolphin during this Deckside Dolphin Encounter! You’ll even get to “shake hands” with them and – if you’re really lucky – get a big dolphin kiss!
Offered Fridays through Mondays, from 12:45-2:00pm. Call the aquarium office or check out their official website for reservations and information.

Trainer for a Day
Wanna be a dolphin trainer for a day? Get to see what tricks dolphins have up their sleeves (or fins, rather!) while working side-by-side with professional trainers. Get to know what dolphins eat and help feed them. You’ll even learn how to train and prepare them for a show! And when the day is over, you’ll be going home a proud bearer of a “Trainer for a Day” certificate.
This program is available every Thursday, from 7:45am to 12nn. Contact the Texas State Aquarium for details.

Make The Most Out Of Your Day In Sea World San Antonio

Time Management Is Essential To Enjoying Sea World

Have you ever experienced feeling like you wasted a day in Sea World San Antonio because you kept on missing shows? And to top it all off you somehow managed to get your video camera and cellular phone soaking wet? If so, then you should read up on a few tips to make your stay in the park a very fruitful one.

The first thing you should do upon entering the park is get a copy of the park map. Behind this you can find the schedule of shows for the entire day. This will help you schedule which shows you want to see in the morning and later on in the day. Keep in mind that you should already be seated in the show’s venue at least fifteen minutes before it starts.

Seats for frequented shows such as the Dolphin Show, Sea Lion Show, and Sea Otter Show get filled up pretty quick. So you might want to proceed to the venues for these shows a bit earlier than usual. Also, you can get on rides in between shows. Just keep in mind that you might have to wait in line for as long as an hour for some rides.

To Soak Or Not To Get Soaked In Sea World—That Is The Question!

Another frequent mistake first time visitors to the park make is sitting in wet zones when they don’t want to get wet. I’ve seen it a dozen times. Visitors sit in the clearly marked soak zone areas in order to get a closer view of the sea animals. They start bringing out their cameras and then—splash—they get wet and their electronics get fried.

Be sure to sit at the back of the venue if you don’t want to get wet. If you want to get wet, but don’t have anyone to hold your valuables and electronics during the show there are safes that you can rent. You can store your belongings more and for a minimal price and then pick them up again afterwards.

This way you can feel free to get wet to your heart’s desire. Remember these tips the next time you visit Sea World San Antonio. And remember to use your aquarium coupons, so you can get huge discounts on your next visit. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at texasaquariums@gmail.com.
