From Avsallar to the dolphin pool
We confirm your exact pickup time after booking. Sealanya is in Turkler, right next door to Avsallar, so the transfer is short. On arrival you check in, change and lock away your valuables.
Before anyone gets into the water, the dolphin trainer explains the rules: how to move calmly, where you may touch the animals and how they communicate with their trainers through hand signals and whistles. Then your small group slips into the deep pool wearing life jackets. For 15 to 20 minutes the dolphins swim right up to you – there is time to stroke them, to watch them up close and to see how they respond to every signal of their trainer. Afterwards there is a moment for photos and questions, and then the minibus takes you back to your hotel in Avsallar; the whole outing takes about three hours.
Before you swim
- You must be able to swim – the pool is deep, even though life jackets are provided.
- The minimum age is 5; children swim with a parent.
- Remove jewellery and avoid a heavy meal before your swim.
- Groups are small, so book early; a deposit confirms your place.
Hotel pickup and drop-off in Avsallar, the Sealanya entrance, the guide and dolphin trainer, the safety briefing, life jackets and 15–20 minutes in the water with the dolphins are included; the balance is paid on the tour day.
