Discovery Cove: An All-Inclusive Day Resort in Orlando Guide

Discovery Cove is an all-inclusive day resort in Orlando, offering a unique and unforgettable experience centered around marine life encounters. Unlike traditional theme parks, Discovery Cove limits the number of daily guests, ensuring a more intimate and personalized experience. Imagine swimming with dolphins, snorkeling among colorful fish, and hand-feeding exotic birds – all within a lush, tropical setting. Discovery Cove opened in 2000 as part of the SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment family. It was designed to provide a more immersive and educational experience than traditional marine parks, focusing on conservation and animal welfare. The park's design emphasizes natural habitats and allows guests to interact with animals in a respectful and enriching way. At Discovery Cove, you can swim with dolphins, snorkel in The Grand Reef alongside rays and tropical fish, hand-feed birds in the Explorer's Aviary, and relax on pristine beaches. The all-inclusive admission includes meals, snacks, drinks (including alcoholic beverages for guests 21+), and all necessary equipment, such as wetsuits and snorkeling gear. You can also upgrade your experience with additional encounters, such as swimming with sharks or participating in a sea venture. While not specifically known for a unique culinary tradition, the all-inclusive dining options offer a variety of cuisines to cater to different tastes.
