Yes, you can swim and interact with dolphins on your Cabo San Lucas getaway. This very popular attraction offers visitors of all ages the once-in-a-lifetime chance to swim and make friends with playful bottlenose dolphins.
Dolphins have the same curiosity about us as we have about them. Swimming and playing with dolphins will leave you the unforgettable thrill of being up close and personal with this gentle, intelligent marine creature.
Are there Dolphins in Cabo?
Cabo San Lucas lies on the southernmost tip of the Baja Peninsula where the Pacific Ocean joins the Sea of Cortez. The combination of various oceanic currents around Cabo San Lucas provides a remarkably diverse and abundant marine ecosystem that supports multiple species of dolphins all year long.
Cabo San Lucas Whale watching tours have reported seeing nine cetacean species (so far!) that are part of the dolphin family.
Bottlenose dolphins are the most commonly encountered dolphin species during the Cabo San Lucas whale-watching season, with two species of common dolphins coming in second. In addition to dolphins, there are other marine animals that visitors may encounter, like sea lions, sea turtles, manta rays, Mobula rays, and sharks.

Swim with Dolphins centers like Cabo Dolphins and Dolphin Swim Adventure are certified by the Humane Conservation program to ensure the proper care, treatment, and protection of dolphins.
These facilities allow you approximately an hour of dolphin experience, with about 40 minutes of actual in-water time in their huge specially-designed pool. There you can enjoy fin shakes, fin rides, and even receive hugs and wet kisses from your dolphin.
