Dolphin Photo fun – Atlantis the Palm

You can’t imagine how friendly dolphins are and at Atlantis The Palm Resort, the Dolphin Bay Program gives you a one-of-kind opportunity to get up and close to dolphins.

What’s more, you won’t need to get into the water either as the dolphin will take all the trouble to come up to you for a cool snap.

After an orientation program that’s truly engaging, brace yourself for a very relaxing interactive session with one of the amazingly friendly and amiable dolphins. It’s a wonderful experience that lasts 10-15 minutes and lets you make a friend from the animal world. The Dolphin Photo Fun sessions make for a truly fun-filled activity for people from all age groups. Kids enjoy it the most as they get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be close to what is surely one of the most adorable of animals.

While you won’t get wet during the encounter with the amazing dolphins, you’ll still be able to not just touch a dolphin, but also hug it. You may also kiss one and what’s more, you may also have a handshake by grabbing one of its fins! Your close encounter with a dolphin gives you a peek into how chirpy, intelligent, and vibrant these lovely mammals can be. Before you leave, you’ll have a professional photographer take a wonderful photograph of yours with a dolphin, a heart-warming souvenir to remember the day by.

Whether you are looking for a perfect surprise for your loved ones or just a memorable outing, the Dolphin Photo Fun session is one activity that’s a must on your bucket list.

The best time to visit

The UAE, including Dubai, is hot and humid for much of the year. It’s very uncomfortable outdoors and the heat gets unbearable at times. It’s between the months of October and February that Dubai is at its best. The weather is pleasant and there’s a gentle breeze blowing. However, it’s at this time of the year itself that the Dubai Shopping Festival is held and the schools are on vacation. So, the city’s pretty crowded. If you can take the crowd in your stride, the best time to visit Dubai is between the months of October and February. It’s an amazing city beckoning you to an unforgettable holiday.
