Dolphinarium Pattaya A Family-Friendly Experience in Pattaya

If you’re planning a trip to Pattaya and looking for something fun, relaxing, and unique, the Pattaya Dolphinarium is a great place to visit. It’s not just for kids—adults will find the dolphin show equally fascinating. Located conveniently in the city, this indoor dolphin show offers an entertaining and educational experience that is perfect for all ages.

What Is Dolphinarium Pattaya?

The Dolphinarium Pattaya is an indoor facility that hosts daily dolphin shows featuring trained dolphins and seals. These intelligent marine mammals perform amazing tricks, synchronized swimming, and interactive acts under the guidance of professional trainers.

The facility is clean, well-maintained, and air-conditioned, making it a great spot to visit, especially during hot or rainy days in Pattaya.

1. Live Dolphin and Seal Show

One of the main highlights is the live dolphin and seal show that lasts about 45 minutes. It includes jaw-dropping acrobatics, ball games, and dancing dolphins. The trainers and animals work together in harmony, and the bond between them is heartwarming to watch.

2. Interactive Photo Session

After the show, guests can choose to take photos with the dolphins. It’s a rare opportunity to get up close to these wonderful creatures. This experience is especially memorable for families and children.

3. Swim with Dolphins 

For those who want a more interactive experience, there is an optional "swim with dolphins" package. You’ll get a chance to be in the pool with trained dolphins for a guided swim session. This is subject to availability, and pre-booking is usually required.
