Entertaining and Educational Show

The dolphin and sea lion show consists of a series of fun acts that run for about 50-60 minutes. In the first part, adorable dolphins take the stage and showcase many skills such as playing with balls, dancing with hoops, high jumps, and acrobatic tricks. You’ll watch in awe as they follow their trainers’ commands so skillfully and perform almost like true artists. Next, playful sea lions and seals join the stage. These cheerful friends will make you laugh with their comedic antics and games, and also surprise you with some tricks performed in harmony with the dolphins. Throughout the show, trainers provide commentary in both English and Turkish, sharing interesting facts about these incredible marine animals. This way, your children not only have fun but also learn new things about dolphin training and characteristics.

Ocean’s Smartest Friends: Get to Know the Dolphins

Dolphins are among the smartest and most friendly creatures of the sea. With their high intelligence, advanced communication skills, and playful behavior, they fascinate people of all ages. As they glide gracefully through the water with their smooth, shiny skin and perform various moves, they display the beauty and mystery of the ocean. Dolphins are also extremely social animals; they live in pods, constantly communicate with each other, and form strong bonds much like humans do. These characteristics make them fascinating subjects for scientists to study and wonderful creatures to learn about. Spending time with dolphins can even have a therapeutic effect that brings joy and calm to people. Many studies have shown that interaction with dolphins can have relaxing and supportive outcomes, especially for children and individuals with special needs. During the Side Dolphin Show, you will observe these magnificent animals up close and gain more insight into their intelligence and affectionate nature.

The Show Program and Atmosphere

At the start of the tour, we pick you up from your hotel in a comfortable vehicle. After an enjoyable ride of roughly one hour, you’ll arrive at the dolphin show center in Aksu. This facility is not a water park, but a special venue dedicated to dolphin and marine life shows. The show arena is designed so that every seat has a good view, and the sound system ensures you can clearly follow every moment. Before the show begins, a brief orientation is given; during this time, you can also explore a small exhibition in the facility to see the dolphins’ living areas. When the announcement is made, everyone moves to the grandstand around the large pool to take their seats. A small tip for those sitting in the front rows: our enthusiastic dolphins might splash you with cool water as they dive and leap! Once all spectators are seated, the moment you’ve been waiting for arrives and the show starts at the trainers’ signal. Accompanied by music and applause, the dolphins and their friends perform an unforgettable visual feast for the audience. The trainers and caretakers at the facility have considered every detail for the dolphins’ safety and happiness. Throughout the show, photographers are ready to capture the most special moments. In fact, at the finale, the dolphins come up to the side of the pool to greet the audience; at this time, those who wish can gently touch and pet them and even pose for a photo together. You can immortalize this special moment with professional photographs available for purchase after the show as a wonderful keepsake.

Dolphin Training and Care

The dolphins and other marine animals at this center are cared for with great dedication by professional trainers and veterinarians. Many of our dolphins were born here and have grown up with their expert caretakers and trainers from the moment they came into the world. Their trainers are like family members to them, and there is a strong bond of trust between them. Thanks to this bond, the dolphins see the shows not as a task, but as an enjoyable game and an opportunity for interaction. Every new trick becomes a skill that the dolphins learn willingly and happily. The applause and cheers from the audience are the biggest reward for them. Their contentment and energy after the show show just how much they enjoy these activities. Animal welfare is the top priority at our center; the health of all our marine friends is monitored with regular veterinary check-ups, and their living environments are maintained to be as natural and comfortable as possible. This means you can watch the show with peace of mind, knowing our dolphins are happy and well-cared for.

Ideal for Families and Kids

The Side Dolphin Show Tour is one of those rare activities that appeals to participants of all ages. It is an especially perfect choice for families with children, as kids will be both laughing and learning as they watch these friendly sea creatures perform. Many children squeal with delight when dolphins “sing,” play with a ball, or wave to the audience during the show. Thanks to the warm and friendly nature of the dolphins, if your little ones have any apprehension about sea animals, you’ll likely see those fears vanish quickly. Adults enjoy the show just as much as the kids do; in fact, many parents relish the excitement of sharing unforgettable moments with their children. This tour, which you join as a family, is likely to become one of the brightest memories of your vacation. After watching the show, you’ll find yourselves chatting together about the dolphins’ positive energy. This experience can turn into a story that will be told in your family for years to come.

Swimming with Dolphins (Optional)

The Side Dolphin Show Tour also offers an opportunity for those who not only want to watch but also interact with dolphins one-on-one. After the show (or at a scheduled time), you can join a dolphin swimming experience for an additional fee. This swim-with-dolphins experience takes place under the supervision of trainers and lasts about 15-20 minutes. Getting into the pool with specially trained dolphins, touching them, playing games, and swimming alongside them is an indescribably unique feeling.

Swimming with dolphins has been observed in scientific research to have relaxing and therapeutic effects, especially for children and individuals with special needs. So it’s not only fun but can also be a beneficial activity. However, for safety and the comfort of our animals, certain rules apply. Children under 3 years old are not allowed to swim with dolphins. Children between 4-6 years old can participate if accompanied by an adult. Unfortunately, this activity is not recommended for pregnant guests or those with health issues such as epilepsy. Because this activity is very popular, we advise you to indicate your interest during booking and reserve your spot in advance. If you want to add another unforgettable experience to your holiday, don’t miss the Side Swim with Dolphins program.
