Baby Dolphin Name Announcement!

The baby dolphin's name is "Samba"!
On October 19, 2024, a baby bottlenose dolphin was born. On April 26, 2025, we will invite the person who named the dolphin to a small naming ceremony. The name will be revealed at the beginning of the dolphin show "Wonder Ocean" on the sea stage at 13:00. A commemorative gift (such as a lifetime pass) will be presented to the name giver. You can also enjoy watching the lively and playful girl "Samba" during the show.
