Atlantis, Dolphin Cay was also recently accredited by the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums.

The first offspring from the famed rescued “Katrina Dolphins” were born at Dolphin Cay. The first calf was born to 32-year-old Kelly on April 4, 2007. A second calf, was born on April 6, 2007 to 21-year-old Michelle. Kelly, Michelle and 14 of their fellow Dolphin Cay residents, were stranded or swept to sea when their former home at the Marine Life Oceanarium in Gulfport, Mississippi, was destroyed during the infamous Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. After being rescued and nursed back to health, all of the dolphins were eventually transported to Atlantis to fully recover and reside at Dolphin Cay’s new state-of-the-art habitat. “These births are the first successful ones for Dolphin Cay from the rescued ‘Katrina Dolphins’ that are expecting offspring, a true testament to the full recovery and acclimation of these miraculous animals.” said Frank Murru, Chief Marine Officer, Kerzner International.
