Sea Lion Discovery Swim at Sea Life Park This program gives you a unique opportunity for some playful, educational interaction with these wonderful animals. After a short orientation session with the sea lions and with your animal trainer, you will join in the fun with these entertaining and affectionate creatures.
Pet, Hug, & Kiss Sea Lions!
During the program, you will be able to pet the sea lions as they pass you in the water, give and receive a sea lion kiss (watch out for those whiskers — they tickle!), see them jump and get a warm sea lion hug.
You will also help the trainer by giving the sea lions signals to enable them to prove their intelligence and abilities to you — they have a great sense of humor and love to mimic people, so be prepared to laugh while participating in this program!

The time spent with the sea lions could be a little bit longer and not just using the time to take photos for purchase.
