In addition to Dolphin Cove's success as a
leading tourist attraction, Stafford andMari-
lyn Burrowes have also earned personal ac-
claim for their leadership savvy in 2014. The
couple were named Jamaica's Business Lead-
ers by the Jamaica Observer, a publication
based out of Kingston.
"We're quite proud of winning these awards,"
Marilyn says. "I'd like to thank everyone for
their support and for recognizing us."
THE DOLPHIN COVE TEAM
Operating three locations across Jamaica is
no easy feat, as such, Dolphin Cove requires
a large and highly skilled team of employees
including specialists in the field of animal
care and environmental protection: special-
ist marine mammal veterinarians and consul-

matters. Though their team is already robust
with talent, from dolphin trainers to guest
services, Marilyn says that Dolphin Cove
continues to bring more members on board.
"We employ between 200-220 people," she
says. "But we're expanding all the time."
