Flight around the Miami Seaquarium on the island of Virginia Key in Biscayne Bay, Miami-Dade County, Florida.

According to the website
https://www.dolphinproject.com/take-action/miami-seaquarium/#1646167813861-2bf69818-31c9
the "Miami Seaquarium is a dolphinarium in Miami, Florida that opened in 1955. Over the decades of operation, the facility has been cited for numerous animal welfare issues relating to their captive dolphins and whales.

Lolita (also known as Tokitae) is the last surviving orca of the infamous Penn Cove captures of 1970. After capture, she was shipped to Miami Seaquarium where she still remains to this day. Lolita has remained captive at the facility in the smallest orca tank in North America for over 50 years, and has not seen another orca in 40 years after her companion Hugo died in 1980. Miami Seaquarium has been promising to build Lolita a new tank since 1978. Despite Lolita being 20 feet long, her tank is only 80 feet across. Her exposure to the sun and weather violates Section 3.103(3)(b) of the Animal Welfare Act. Her tank is also 13 feet shorter than what is required by the Animal Welfare Act (Section 3.104)."
