Intro Copy Worlds of Discovery is the brand new name for the SeaWorld, Aquatica, Discovery Cove and Busch Gardens family of parks. Come and explore…Discovery Cove. It’s where you can swim with a dolphin, relax on sugar white beaches and enjoy the all-inclusive resort atmosphere. Main Body A day at Discovery Cove® is a one-of-a-kind tropical experience that gives you more to do in one day than many people do in a lifetime. Here you can swim with an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin. Snorkel with tropical fish, glide with rays, hand-feed exotic birds, and leave your worries behind. Dolphin Lagoon The centrepiece of your visit is the unique opportunity to swim with a beautiful bottlenose dolphin. First you’ll be briefed on the dolphin’s behaviour, then you’ll head on down to the Dolphin Lagoon where you’ll get to know your new-found friend through hugs, kisses and fish. Coral Reef Snorkellers can follow colourful clouds of 1,000s of tropical fish in this spectacular Coral Reef. Sharks and Barracuda You can also snorkel within inches of barracuda and sharks, fierce predators safely housed behind clear partitions.
