Get ready for an unforgettable dolphin experience where these naturally curious dolphins are free to interact with you at their own pace!
During the encounter, your trainer will introduce you to the dolphins and share fascinating information about their characteristics, anatomy, and behaviors. You’ll have the opportunity to touch, kiss, and play with one of these friendly marine mammals while enjoying wonderful photo opportunities. Professional photographs will also be taken throughout your experience so you can capture special moments with your new dolphin friends.
Following the encounter, enjoy approximately 30 minutes of snorkeling with a limited number of fellow participants and more than a dozen resident dolphins within the enclosure. This unique snorkel session offers excellent opportunities for close interaction with the dolphins. If the dolphins choose not to interact, they have access to a private area within the two-acre enclosure.
Furthermore, you will tour a chocolate factory to learn about the production process and sample a variety of chocolates. You will also visit a rum factory to taste rum cakes and different types of rums.
Snorkeling gear is not included. Guests may bring their own equipment or rent gear on-site for $9.00 USD.
Compare it with the Dolphin Action Swim and the gentler dolphin encounter tour.

Mickel and his wife made our trip to Honduras on the cruise the most safe, fun filled, and cost effective experience we could ask for. We are so happy we used them!![]()

The best tour, when we arrived he was already waiting for us, very friendly, respectful, he took us where we really wanted to go, a very helpful person. When I visit Roatan I'll call him without thinking. Thank you Michael for your time with us.![]()

We initially spoke to Michael through our cruise FB group and arranged a full day visiting various places. We met at the port and we were taken everywhere planned and more. Nothing was too much trouble and he is a lovely gentleman. Really glad we chose DD Roatan Tours and I recommend them to anyone visiting as you will not be disappointed. Thanks for an amazing day :-)![]()

Fantastic experience. Michael Bolton had everything taken care of. The ATV ride was a little sketchy as the equipment wasn’t very good but the people were amazing. Our driver Ann took us to the rum factory and chocolate factory. She was absolutely lovely. Would highly recommend them if you are going to be stopping in Roatan.![]()

Used this tour group when we went to Roatan. Mickel sent a list of options and we chose what we wanted to do. Personalized for our family. Being independent it was just our family in the vehicle to travel around. We were on our time line and could shorten or extend based on how the kids were doing. Super friendly and responsive. Answered questions quickly. Picked us up outside the cruise ship terminal. Would definitely recommend.![]()

Michel was absolutely protective of our group when we came to Honduras for horseback riding, holding sloths, and even a visit to the chocolate factory. He made sure we all made it to the tour in the first place with the maze and confusion of vendors right off the cruise ship. Then, he made sure we went to the best souvenir shops, and knew what services being offered as we walked between venues were a scam and which were good. I brought a group of 8 friends with me for his tour and just felt like I had an honest local ally in Michel. I even fell from a poorly secured hammock outside the souvenir shop and he made sure they made it right. We had a great time the entire day and felt like we really not only got our moneys worth but also were in trustworthy and safe hands. That means a lot when you don’t know the area but want the best experience! Thank you Michel!! I know who to recommend now!
Pick-up at Isla Tropicale (formerly Mahogany Bay), Town Center (Coxen Hole) or your hotel. See our cruise port guide.
