Swim with a Dolphin at Sealanya: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Connection
You’ll know the moment it happens — that instant when your eyes meet a dolphin’s, and something magical passes between you. It’s not just a look; it’s a feeling, a spark, as if the dolphin truly understands you.
At Sealanya Dolphinpark, just a short journey from Side or Alanya, this dream becomes a breathtaking reality. Here, in the calm and clear waters, you won’t just swim — you’ll connect, deeply and memorably.
The heart of this experience is an intimate dolphin swim, just you and one of nature’s most intelligent, gentle creatures. You’ll glide through the water together, holding onto its fins, sharing smiles, and maybe even a kiss. In one unforgettable moment, the world fades away — replaced by joy, laughter, and a powerful sense of connection.
Before this magical swim, your journey begins with the lively and heartwarming Dolphin & Seal Show. These playful marine stars light up the stage, setting the tone for the bond you’re about to build.
But more than anything, this tour is about emotion. It’s not just fun — it’s meaningful. A moment that touches something deeper. A memory that lingers.
Some adventures stay with you for a while.
This one stays with you forever.

“A fost una dintre cele mai frumoase experiențe din vacanța noastră! Să înoți cu delfinii e ceva ce nu poți descrie în cuvinte – sunt atât de inteligenți, jucăuși și afectuoși. Personalul de la Sealanya a fost foarte atent și profesionist. Iar spectacolul cu delfini și foci de după a fost plin de culoare și emoție – ne-a făcut să ne simțim din nou copii.

“To było spełnienie mojego marzenia z dzieciństwa! Pływanie z delfinami w Sealanya było magiczne – te zwierzęta są tak inteligentne, łagodne i cudownie reagują na ludzi.
