Sea Life Circle Manatees Puerto Aventuras Overview

Tired of the same old boring aquariums with your nose pressed to the glass? Wish you didn't have a wall between you and the creatures you want to reach out and touch? Then experience Sea Life Circle Manatees Tour at Puerto Aventuras on Riviera Maya, which boasts an exquisite view of the Caribbean. Even more exquisite are the sea creatures you’ll get to be up close and personal with. The Sea Life Circle Program is an interactive experience and one you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Kiss a dolphin, shake its hand—or its flipper—and enjoy the dorsal push, as it lifts you by your feet and carries you across the water - you'll swear you were flying! You'll also get to kiss and feed manatees, or sea cows, so called not because of their resemblance to cattle, but because of their vegetarian diet - they're absolutely wild about lettuce. You'll fall in love with these gentle giants and their endearing personalities. Plus, you'll get a real - and fascinating - lesson in aquatic biology. Learn all about manatee mating and migration habits, legends, and much more. You'll also love the Snorkel Fantasy, an interactive experience with sting rays. Despite their fearsome appearance, they are actually placid creatures, and their languid fan-like movement will mesmerize you. You'll never go back to petting pools again.

Forget those crowded, noisy aquariums and come experience the real thing at Riviera Maya. Be sure to wear comfortable clothing and plenty of sunscreen and a spirit of adventure. This is a trip the entire family will love. And don't pass up the opportunity to have your picture taken with one of these magical beasts! It's the granddaddy of all souvenirs.
