The park houses two distinct dolphin species: the Irrawaddy dolphin and the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin, often locally referred to as 'pink dolphins'.
All dolphins at the facility are sourced from rescue efforts, having been stranded or injured in local fishing nets.
The pools are designed with natural tidal flow systems to mimic the chemical and biological properties of the natural sea environment.
The center functions as an active research station, collecting data on dolphin physiology and behavior in controlled settings.
Interaction programs are strictly managed by professional trainers to ensure animal welfare and safety standards.
Oasis Sea World is a marine facility in Chanthaburi, Thailand, recognized for its focus on dolphin conservation and human-dolphin interaction programs. The park maintains a population of Irrawaddy dolphins and Pink dolphins (Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins), which are native to the surrounding coastal waters. Visitors can observe acrobatic dolphin shows performed in large, open-air seawater pools. The facility operates as an educational and research center where guests may book supervised swimming sessions with the dolphins. The park's infrastructure utilizes direct water circulation from the nearby sea to maintain the environment for the resident dolphins. It serves as a rescue and rehabilitation center for injured or stranded marine mammals in the Gulf of Thailand region.
The viewing platform overlooking the main performance pool offers the best angle for capturing acrobatic jumps.
Book swimming interaction sessions well in advance as these spots are limited and require specific physical health clearances.
Bring high-SPF sunscreen and polarized sunglasses to manage glare from the open-air pool surfaces.
Wear quick-drying clothing and footwear suitable for wet surfaces around the pool decks.
Avoid applying heavy lotions or chemical sunscreens immediately before entering the water for interactions, as these can affect water quality and dolphin skin health.
Strict adherence to trainer instructions is mandatory when interacting with dolphins; no sudden movements or loud noises are permitted near the pools.
