Discovery Cove offers you the chance to discover marine life like never before, and you might find yourself unable to leave. Swim with shoals of tropical fish and even stingrays! Of course, the highlight of the day might be swimming alongside the bottlenose dolphins, with their adorable chirping and sleek movements in the water. You can snorkel in a saltwater reef and attempt to emulate the smooth strokes of the fish in the water.


You won’t be able to resist walking along the fearsome-looking reef sharks who swim past you (but with a layer of glass in between, of course), or playing with the adorable family of otters who await you in the Freshwater Oasis. The water-filled trails might lead you to the Grand Reef, and you have to cross a rope bridge over a shark-filled lagoon! Yay or nay? For the adventurous among you, rejoice because you have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to swim with sharks in their habitat. if you’d rather do something else, the aviary (literally) calls, with many exotic birds chirping in welcome. The brilliantly coloured sun conure is just one example of the many types of birds found there, including parrots and toucans. A trip to Discovery Cove with your family is sure to thrill and leave you longing for more.
