Towels at Discovery Cove

[purplecatherine]

Me and my family went to Discovery cove in 2004. It was one of the most fantastic experiences of my life. Now I just have to swim with a manatee and my life will be complete! Anyway, going back to DC on Feb. 18th next week (Aaaaarrrrhhhhh!!!) and I'm currently having a goldfish moment. Can anyone tell me if towels are provided? I can remember that you get a mask (must be returned), a snorkel to keep and fish-friendly sunscreen but that's as far as it goes.
Cheers guys.

yes, they do provide towels in the bathrooms where you can shower, you dont really need a towel until you shower, its easy to air dry there, and you are constantly getting wet, so a towel would be pretty pointless beforehand anyways

Plenty of towels and if you feel the need, you can take one around with you. We've always been allowed to keep our masks (not the prescription ones though) and snorkel bag.

Yes, snorkels only. I have seen people walking out with masks but I figure either the employees didn't notice or were afraid of upsetting the customer.
