About Dolphin Royal Connection Puerto Aventuras

The Royal Swim Plus program is the most dynamic dolphin swim at Dolphin Discovery Puerto Aventuras. Share an unforgettable experience with marine mammals alongside your favorite people: swim with dolphins and enjoy dedicated interactions with manatees and sea lions. The habitat is located within the Puerto Aventuras residential complex, just minutes from Playa del Carmen. You'll enjoy fun activities with the dolphins: greet them, give them a kiss, and let them take you on a high-speed Dorsal Tow and launch you out of the water with the famous Foot Push. Puerto Aventuras is an eco-friendly planned resort development on the Mexican Caribbean, 20 minutes north of Playa del Carmen and 20 minutes south of the Tulum ruins. The facilities sit on a tropical island with a lagoon, home to the dolphins. Around the marina you'll find boutiques, cafés, gourmet bakeries, restaurants, and craft shops, so you and your group can enjoy a full day both inside and outside the facilities.
