Discovery Cove

Imagine trading the hustle and bustle of the theme parks for a tropical paradise where you can snorkel, swim, relax, and enjoy incredible animal experiences. Discovery Cove Orlando is a reservation-only, all-inclusive day resort designed to give you a completely different Orlando experience.

Guests can explore the Grand Reef, float along the Wind-Away River, visit the Explorer’s Aviary, relax on sandy beaches, and enjoy meals, snacks, beverages, equipment, and other amenities throughout the day. For an even more unforgettable experience, the Signature Dolphin Swim package gives eligible guests the opportunity to get up close and personal with dolphins.

Your Orlando Vacation

Discovery Cove can be the perfect way to slow down and recharge during a busy Orlando vacation, whether you’re traveling with family, celebrating a special occasion, or simply looking for something different. And you don’t have to choose between relaxation and adventure—depending on the package, Discovery Cove can be combined with SeaWorld Orlando and other experiences.

Your DWB Vacations advisor can help you determine which option makes sense for your family, find the right combination of experiences, and handle the details so you can spend less time planning and more time enjoying your vacation. Your dream vacation should feel like a vacation from the moment you start planning.
