Alanya Dolphin Show: Sea Lions and Transfer to Sealanya

Alanya Dolphin Show at Sealanya with Tickets and Hotel Transfer

Few outings on this stretch of coast pack as much joy into a single morning or afternoon as the Alanya dolphin show at Sealanya Dolphinpark. Your entry ticket is already covered and a round-trip hotel transfer handles the journey, so all that is left is to take your seat and enjoy around 50 minutes of live marine performance.

A Smooth Ride to the Türkler Coast

An air-conditioned vehicle collects you from your hotel in the Alanya area and follows the coast west to Türkler, home of Sealanya. On arrival you are directed to the dolphinarium entrance with enough time to pick a good spot in the curved grandstand, which gives a clear view of the pool from every row.

Sea Lions Open the Programme

The first part of the show belongs to the sea lions. For around 20 minutes these quick-witted performers dance to music, show off their balancing skills, answer their trainers with loud calls and fill the stands with laughter, with children usually the first to cheer.

Bottlenose Dolphins in Full Flight

Once the sea lions take their bow, the bottlenose dolphins glide into the pool for the main act. Expect soaring leaps, spins, synchronised swimming in pairs and groups, ball games and hoop tricks, all led by trainers who have built a close bond with each animal. Their speed and precision show exactly why dolphins rank among the most intelligent creatures in the sea.

After the Final Splash

When the performance ends, there is a short window to linger by the pool. If you would like a professional souvenir photo with a dolphin or a sea lion, the park's photo team can arrange one for an additional fee, while personal photos from the stands are free as long as the flash stays off. Swimming with dolphins is not part of this package and the park offers it as a separate paid experience.

Choosing Your Session

The show runs every day in two sessions, starting at 10:30 and 15:00. The listed time is when the show begins, not when you are collected. Hotel pickup takes place earlier and your exact pickup time is confirmed after booking because it depends on where your hotel is located. Once the activity ends, the return transfer follows and drop-off time varies with traffic and your hotel location.

Respecting the Park's Marine Residents

Sealanya asks every visitor to follow a few simple rules that protect guests and animals alike. The dolphins and sea lions eat only fish prepared by their trainers, so offering them food or throwing anything into the pools is not allowed. Touching the animals is only possible with a trainer present, and smoking is not permitted in the amphitheatre or around the pools.

Ideal for Every Generation

With a running time of under an hour and plenty of humour, the Alanya dolphin show suits families with young children, couples and grandparents alike. It needs no special fitness or preparation and works well as a half-day plan alongside a relaxed day at the beach.
