Is there a nearby place to swim with dolphins? We have reservations at Quality Inn July 30 & 31

Short answer - no place in OC to swim with the dolphins.  However, if you have an oceanfront hotel room or condo, look out your window either in the early morning or before sunset and you may see the families of OC dolphins enjoying the water.

Don't miss all the other fantastic programs, events, and attractions in Ocean City.  A great way to plan your trip is to visit www.ococean.com.  This website lists all the events during your stay, restaurants you may want to try, and attractions to visit.

Have a great time!

No, no such thing in Ocean City. But you can go to Assateague Island and walk with the ponies!  Be sure to check out the Nature Center there as well. Definitely worth the trip.

There are no places to swim with dolphins in or near OC. If you take the Sea Rocket or OC Rocket tour boats you likely will sea dolphins on the cruise.

There is a pod of 15 - 20 dolphins that swim about 200 feet from shore. We see them all the time. They are very active and easy to see.

No, there isn't a place designated to swim with the dolphins.  You can usually catch them late afternoon right in the inlet playing though.
