Japan Dolphin Center is a specialized marine facility located in Sanuki City, Kagawa Prefecture, on the scenic coast of eastern Shikoku, Japan. Set in a region where forested mountains meet the sea, the center is dedicated to providing meaningful and close encounters with dolphins in a natural seaside environment. Visitors can enjoy dolphin feeding sessions, participate in trainer-for-a-day programs, take part in seasonal beach encounter experiences, and even swim alongside the dolphins. Live training demonstrations are held throughout the day and can be observed at no additional cost. The center operates seasonally, with peak activity during the summer months, and serves both as a popular tourism destination and a facility engaged in dolphin research and care, offering a memorable experience for visitors of all ages.
