Dolphins at AKR

 

AKR’s dolphin encounter and educational programs will satisfy the curiosity of guests of all ages. Here, you can snorkel with dolphins or dive with them in the open sea, accompanied by a dolphin behaviorist and videographer. Become a trainer-for-a-day, or enroll in a dolphin specialty course. During the summer months AKR and the Roatan Institute for Marine Sciences offer a six-day Dolphin Scuba Camp where children learn about and interact with dolphins. They also hone new snorkeling or scuba skills, and learn about the island's eco-system and culture.

The dolphin programs offer the unusual opportunity for divers and snorkelers to interact with dolphins on the mammal's own initiative. Interaction is achieved by the dolphin's natural curiosity. The openwater dive is the optimal way to observe the dolphins in their natural habitat, where there is no feeding enticement to secure interaction with humans. The dolphin snorkel provides more opportunity for physical contact. For those who prefer to stay in waist-deep water, a dolphin beach encounter is also popular.
