What does a dolphin's skin feel like? What does a dolphin eat? Find out during a Dolphin Encounter at Mississippi Aquarium! Our Dolphin encounter gives participants the opportunity to touch and feed Mississippi's water mammal.
The program includes a 10-minute educational chat, 5 minutes with a dolphin and trainer, and a Q&A session after the interaction. Participants should expect to be in small groups during this poolside encounter and must be comfortable kneeling near open water.
We ask any participant with special needs to please contact us at education@msaquarium.org in advance so that we may ensure the best experience possible.
