What’s on your Spring Break bucket list? A relaxing tropical escape? Pristine sugar-white sand beaches? Lush landscapes? Encounters with exotic wildlife? An all-inclusive resort? Believe it or not, you can experience all this and more at one spectacular spot, right in the heart of Central Florida, at Discovery Cove Orlando.

Spanning 35 acres, Discovery Cove is a tropical oasis offering a once-in-a-lifetime, all-inclusive day park experience, providing an island-style getaway without the trouble or expense of traveling to far-off places. Imagine swimming with dolphins, snorkeling with hundreds of tropical fish and rays, hand-feeding exotic birds, relaxing on white sand beaches in the warm Florida sunshine, and drifting along winding rivers – all with the added perk of unlimited food and drinks, including beer and wine (for guests ages 21+). And with a daily guest limit, you can explore and enjoy this Spring Break paradise at your leisure without worrying about any lines.

Here are some of the ways to make the most of your best-ever Spring Break at Discovery Cove:

Make lasting memories with a new friend during the Signature Dolphin Swim Experience. Get to know the newest member of your pod, while animal care specialists share knowledge on dolphin habits, behaviors, their communication abilities, and the relationships they build on a daily basis.

Snorkel among thousands of tropical fish and rays through canyons inspired by reefs from around the world in The Grand Reef®. From shallow waters for wading to deeper swimming adventures, The Grand Reef offers multiple levels of exploration, with zoological professionals on hand to give snorkeling tips, help identify fish, and share stories of the park’s conservation efforts.

In the lush, tropical environment of Explorer’s Aviary, you’ll have the opportunity to hand-feed and interact with hundreds of exotic birds. You’ll find this aviary by way of the park’s sugar-white beaches of Serenity Bay or by drifting under the refreshing waterfalls of Wind-Away River.

Simply relax, explore, and find endless discoveries in the Freshwater Oasis®, which provides a fun and “fresh” look into conservation. The oasis features wading adventures and face-to-face encounters with adorable otters, as well as an island where playful marmosets may be spotted.

Want to step it up a bit? Upgrade your day with a variety of add-ons – from private cabana and day bed rentals to becoming a Trainer for the Day. You can even add an Ultimate VIP Experience for a one-of-a-kind visit, unlike any other!
