FAQ & Notes
Can I use my own camera during the session?
While the professional photographer handles the main shots, you are usually allowed to have a member of your own party take quick photos/videos from a designated area, provided they do not interfere with the professional shoot or distract the Dolphin.
Do I need to be able to swim for the photo session?
No, you do not need to swim. Most of the interaction is done standing on a secure platform at the edge of the pool or in very shallow water.
Are the photos included in the price?
Yes, the base price typically includes the session fee and a minimum package of high-resolution digital photos. Physical prints or larger photo albums may be purchased separately.
Can multiple people be in the photo with the Dolphin?
Yes. The Dolphin Photo Session is perfect for family photos or couples. The trainer will arrange multiple poses to ensure every person in your party gets a special moment with the Dolphin.
Do I need a separate ticket for the Dolphin Show?
Yes. The Dolphin Photo Session is a separate booking from the main Dolphin Show. If you wish to watch the show, you must purchase a show entrance ticket in addition to the photo session package.
