near-vertical drop into a 200-foot-long body slide through the heart
of the Tower’s darkness, ultimately ending in an underground liar of
prehistoric alligator gar.

minutes and the interaction is preceded by an informative
presentation on dolphin behavior, physiology, safety and the
importance of marine conservation.

CENTER

about dolphins and marine life conservation. A portion of the
proceeds from the dolphin programs is donated to the Kerzner Marine
Foundation – a private non-profit foundation fostering the
