Dolphin Fun is Ageless and Timeless!

Recently, a 95 year old woman visited Dolphin Research Center to try something she'd longed dreamed of experiencing.


Louise Spencer and members of her family enjoyed a Dolphin Encounter with Santini.  Although DRC staff was on hand to provide assistance to Louise, clearly she didn't need it.  She and Santini shared a spectacular dorsal tow through the lagoon!

Her visit inspired us all to remember that you're never too old to have fun and you should experience your dreams whenever possible.

Go Louise!

Happy Birthday to Sandy!

Thirty two years ago today, Sandy was born.  He must have been an adorable calf and he grew into a handsome guy almost nine and a half feet long!  Some consider him shy and then they get to know his energetic "dolphinality" and his ability to create some of the most entertaining ad-libbed behaviors of any dolphin in the pod.

Born at Sea World in Florida, he later moved to New England Aquarium where he met Rainbow.  These two then joined the DRC family in October, 1991.

Happy Birthday, San-Man!  We love you.
