Trainer-For-A-Day

You’ve heard it said that being a dolphin trainer must be the coolest job in the world, and now you have the opportunity to find out first hand while participating in Marineland’s Trainer-For-A-Day program. After your arrival, it’s time to get busy, and busy you will be! While aiding the training crew, you’ll play a role in the activities that fill a marine mammal specialist’s day, such as preparing meals, feeding animals, attending an animal training lecture, observing and tracking program behaviors, creating enrichment devices for dolphins, assisting in record keeping, and most importantly, encountering dolphins! Every day is different in the life of a trainer, so no two programs will ever be alike. You’ll be given a Trainer-For-A-Day tank-top to wear with your bathing suit. After all - it’s the uniform of a dolphin trainer. The crew will provide you with a CD of photos from your day on the job. By the end of your day, you’ll know who has the best job in the world.

Ages: 13 & up | Price: $450 | Duration: 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. (Approximately 5 hours - 60 minutes with dolphins)
