Pattaya Dolphin World and Resort, Chonburi is a destination designed to combine entertainment with learning about nature. The founders envisioned a place that would bring happiness to visitors of all ages without disturbing the environment, while offering new and unique experiences. The result is a dolphin performance arena where the animals, nurtured and carefully trained, have become true underwater stars.

 

Visitors will encounter the intelligence and friendliness of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins and Irrawaddy dolphins. These dolphins perform impressive tricks such as high jumps, mid-air spins, and playful ball games, all while showing deep trust toward their trainers. Each show goes beyond entertainment, offering insights into dolphin behavior and the harmonious connection between humans and marine life.

 

The main shows are held three times a day at 11:00 a.m., 2:00 p.m., and 5:00 p.m., lasting about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Another highlight is the “Swim with Dolphins” program, scheduled at special times throughout the day (9:45 a.m., 11:45 a.m., 1:45 p.m., and 3:45 p.m.). Pattaya Dolphin World and Resort is open from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., closing every Wednesday for maintenance and dolphin rest. Travelers are encouraged to check the show schedule in advance and book early.

 

Ticket prices vary depending on seating and activities. Standard admission for adults starts from 500–700 THB, while children’s tickets range between 250–400 THB (for those under 120 cm in height). Deluxe and VIP seating options are available at higher prices, and the “Swim with Dolphins” activity starts at 2,500 THB, with premium packages reaching up to 6,000 THB. Prices may change based on promotions or season, so it’s best to confirm on the official website before visiting.

 

The resort also offers full facilities including restaurants, souvenir shops, and family-friendly rest areas. Getting there is easy: it’s about a 1.5–2 hour drive from Bangkok by private car, taxi, or rental service. If you’re already in Pattaya, the resort is only a short distance from the city center, making it convenient for day trips.

 

A visit to Pattaya Dolphin World and Resort is more than just a marine show—it’s an opportunity to witness the beauty of human-animal bonds and to learn more about marine life. Whether with family, friends, or as a couple, guests can expect an experience filled with fun, knowledge, and lasting memories.
