The experience outline
Opening hours and entry times are confirmed for your date.
- Step 01
Getting there
On the transfer options a vehicle collects you from your Dubai hotel and drives you to Atlantis The Palm on Crescent Road, Palm Jumeirah; the shared vehicle may collect other guests on the way. On the ticket-only options you make your own way there.
- Step 02
Check-in and changing
Show your voucher and a passport or government photo ID, which Atlantis's listing asks for at admission. Change into swimwear, put your things in a locker, and collect the equipment your programme uses: a life jacket, wetsuit, mask and snorkel, diving helmet or scuba set.
- Step 03
Briefing
The in-water programmes start with a briefing from the Atlantis team: about 10 minutes before the kayak, 15 before the Dolphin Swim, and 15 to 20 before the Ultimate Snorkel and the dives, by Atlantis's listings.
- Step 04
With the animals
The programme you booked: a poolside Meet and Greet with a dolphin or a sea lion; 30 minutes waist-deep on the Dolphin Encounter; 30 minutes swimming on the Dolphin Swim; about 20 minutes on the water on the kayak; 20 minutes on the surface of the Shark Lagoon; or 20 to 30 minutes in the Ambassador Lagoon on the Ultimate Snorkel or a dive. Aquatrek Extreme takes about 30 minutes in all, briefing and changing included.
