Discovery Cove, no other food, beverages or coolers are permitted. Guests may wish to bring books and magazines, a CD or tape player with headset or similar items to help them relax on he beach, and a camera to catch those special moments. Private cabanas are also available for rent and are tucked within lush landscape. Table, chairs, chaise lounges and rolled towels are included. You deserve a day at Discovery Cove which was recently named Number 3 in the list of the Top 10 Attractions in the US by TripAdvisor.com.
Orlando's Discovery Cove, located next to Seaworld Adventure Park is not so much a theme park as it is a
"Tropical paradise." The combined lush environments of Discover Cove with its incredible animal encounters is enough to make anyone believe that they've been magically transported to a remote tropical island for the day.
Discovery Cove is all inclusive…that means everything is included. Once you’ve paid your entrance fee…that’s it…no more to pay.
Discovery Cove provides all guests with swim vests and/or wetsuits, a mask and snorkel, towels and beach chairs. They will also provide you with a sample of a specially formulated sunscreen that is safe for use in the animal habitats.
You should bring your own swimsuits (some people forget believe it or not), and, if you choose, water socks or rubber pool shoes. Don’t forget a hat, sunglasses, cover-up and dry clothes.
Find out when stingray feeding times are when you arrive…it’s a lot of fun!
Make sure you “Come Hungry”… remember the day is all inclusive and you can eat and drink as much as you like. Have breakfast at the park when you arrive!
Do not wear jewelry; it’s for the safety of the animals.
Make the day even more special: Ask about a private cabana…it’s an exclusive way to spend the day.
Join us and get involved in an experience you won't soon forget!
