During your swim with sea lions, you will have the opportunity to pet them, as well as join them in an interaction pool for hugs, kisses and photographs. Ages 6 and up are welcome to meet the sea lions, and following the meet and greet, you will have a chance to see even more marine life in various shows taking place at the park.
