Dolphin Lagoon: In the Pink of Gaiety

Dolphin Lagoon is situated in Sentosa, Singapore. This unique and fantastic underwater dolphin world is one of its kind in Asia. The place is a home to the Indo-Pacific Humpbacked Dolphins. These dolphins are known as pink dolphins because of the coating of bubbly pink colour. Dolphins are extremely intelligent animals; they can imitate humans, which make them unique in the animal world, and also a delight to watch. The pink dolphins are still more singular, and also rare. This Dolphin Lagoon has been built at a cost of around S$3 million, but its value to the children and the children in all of us are priceless.

The lagoon was constructed as a replica of the natural environment of dolphins, keeping in mind their natural habitat. It is having around 30 million liters of natural seawater that is filtered. Also, the lagoon has a surging sandy bottom that provides the dolphins with assortment of varying water depths. Wonderful white beaches that are lined with pulsating palm trees surround the waterbed, and add to the beauty of the environment.

The most interesting feature of this dolphin lagoon is the sessions of 'Meet the Dolphin.' During these sessions, visitors can watch the dolphins performing some of their behaviours like tail flapping, vocalizations and spy hop, etc. to the considerable amusement of the crowd at large. During these sessions, some visitors are given a chance to wade through the shallow waters and feed and touch these marine wonders, but only under the guidance of the lagoon staff.
