Manatee Encounter ®
A brand new experience!
Dolphin Discovery is thrilled to announce our newest program, the Manatee Encounter in Cozumel. This is a one of a kind adventure, the only swim with manatees program in the Caribbean. Manatees are beautiful and enormous, once thought by sailors to be mermaids, these gentle giants can grow as long as 13ft/4m and weigh up to 1300 pounds/600 kgs! Bring the family to live the experience of swimming with manatees in the paradise of Chankanaab National Park, surrounded by beautiful flora and fauna with vistas of the turquoise sea. Submerse yourself in the underwater world of the manatee, share a kiss and a hug and even feed these magnificent creatures while swimming with them in their home in the sea. You and your family will create memories for a lifetime and share a magical time with our manatees
Our manatees welcome you to Cozumel and hope that you enjoy your Manatee Encounter, an absolutely unique and out of this world adventure.
Dolphin Discovery location at Chankanaab Park is open at 9:00 am.
