Wanted to visit here long before I got a chance. My experience was one that I will never forget. If I were to live this life over again, I would work there. This is not your typical dolphin tourist attraction, by far. Read up, learn about this wonderful place and you may fall in love also.

We were so close and the trainers were amazing. The trainer working with my daughter so she could give the dolphin a kiss was terrific. My daughter got to "pet" the mom dolphin and her 9 month old baby and also interact with them from the little dock for a short while before giving them a kiss.

I cant say enough about this place!! We had such a wonderful time here! There are many options of things to do here but we chose to kiss the dolphins! Wonderful experience!!! Before you do any encounters they give you a excellent presentation about the dolphins ( we learned a lot ) and then they give safety information! The staff is wonderful!!! They truly love the animals and make sure that you are also enjoying your encounter!

The internship at Dolphins Plus changed my life! The experience of participating in diet preparations, facility maintenance, data entry, and being part of the day to day operations solidified my dreams of becoming a marine mammal trainer one day!

I just wanted to mention that this was the most organized internship that I have ever had. I really appreciated that I always had something to work on so that I was moving forward each day. I really loved getting to intern at Dolphins Plus this summer! Thank you for everything!

The summer animal care and training internship was AMAZING! My semester finished later than most, so I ended up having to start the internship later and they were extremely helpful and understanding! The trainers caught me up to speed and made sure that I was on track to do well! I also learned so much more at Dolphins Plus than I have anywhere else. This program is a great one for any level of intern, whether it is their first internship or their third.

I completed the Animal Care and Training Internship at Dolphins Plus. It was an amazing experience and I will never forget my time there. As if seeing the dolphins everyday wasn't rewarding enough, all of the trainers and staff were extremely nice and eager to have you learn as much as you can during your time here. I fell in love with this facility, my fellow interns, and the amazing trainers that have taught me so much. I would highly suggest this internship if you have an interest in the marine mammal training field.

My Summer internship at Dolphins Plus was an incredibly rewarding experience. The knowledge I gained from the amazing staff and animals is valuable and I will carry it/build upon it throughout my future career.

To put it simply, this internship was the most extraordinary thing I have ever done. I fell in love with six beautiful Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, met the most amazing people, and spent my entire summer immersed in an environment that fostered learning, personal growth, and a desire to make a difference. There may have been many buckets to clean and lots of daily tasks to do, but it never felt like work.

Dolphins Plus is an amazing place to ask questions, grow as a future animal caretaker/trainer in an uplifting team setting, and to experience the presence of some inspiring animals and people.

The animal care internship with Dolphins Plus was one of the most beneficial additions to my education thus far. I felt extremely valued and a true part of the team. I would recommend this internship to anyone that is thinking of going into an animal related field.

Make sure you enjoy and have so much fun every day during your internship because trust me when I say time will fly. You will learn so much every day and be given many responsibilities. And seeing the dolphins every day is the best
