Flipper (also known as Flipper – The New Adventures) is an American revival television series of the original 1964 Flipper television series. The first two seasons aired in first-run syndication; Seasons 3 and 4 aired on the PAX network.

The series was set in a town named Bal Harbor that was supposed to be in the Florida Keys region. (There is an actual town in Florida with a similar name, Bal Harbour, Florida just north of the City of Miami Beach.) However, it was largely filmed in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Three episodes during the first season, including the pilot, were filmed in Pigeon Key, Florida and at the Dolphin Research Center in Grassy Key, Florida.

The series is unrelated to the 1996 film of the same title which was also a remake of the 1960s TV series and films.

Season 1 opens with the adult Dr. Keith "Bud" Ricks (Brian Wimmer) from the original 1964 Flipper series leading dolphin research at the Bal Harbour Marine Institute in the Florida Keys. Dr. Pam Blondell (Colleen Flynn) is a naval officer, relocated to the Florida Keys to join Dr. Ricks at the institute to perform dolphin research. Dr. Blondell is accompanied by her son Mike (Payton Haas), a rebellious teen. Mike is unhappy about the move until he meets Maya Graham (Jessica Alba), a free-spirited 14-year-old girl who has a special connection with Flipper and the ocean.
