Winter Dolphin

Winter, Hope, and PJ. Three peas in a pod. 🐬💙

Today we commemorate Winter's Rescue Anniversary. On this day in 2005, Winter was discovered entangled in a crab trap in need of rescue. Her injuries led to the loss of her tail, but not her spirit! Winter spent 16 years at CMA, inspiring millions along the way.

Winter and Hope had an unbreakable bond! Tag a friend who is the Hope to your Winter.

Surrounded by sustainable Florida landscaping, the calming pathway will invite guests to sit upon the benches flanking the statue and water feature. #WinterIsInOurHearts

Today, on the one-year anniversary of Winter the Dolphin’s passing, Clearwater Marine Aquarium released plans for a memorial garden in honor of the late Dolphin Tale star. The garden and winding pathway will feature a statue of Winter as she emerges from a water fountain.

Enrichment time with Winter, so sweet.

Rest in paradise PJ. 💙 From the instant PJ arrived at CMA, it was clear that her easygoing personality would make her a perfect match for Winter and Hope. PJ is now able to join Winter and serve as her bodyguard for eternity – as she would have it no other way.

This sweet girl will always be in our hearts! 💙

Today we remember Winter on what would have been her 17th Birthday. In honor of this special day, we're looking back on some of our favorite Winter birthday moments. 💙 #WinterIsInOurHearts
