Since opening our all-natural facility in 1989, Blue Lagoon Island, home to Dolphin Encounters, has welcomed over 2.5 million visitors, earning its place as one of the top attractions in The Bahamas. From the very beginning, we have set the benchmark for marine mammal interactive programs, not just in our country but around the world.
