Got a nice tour in November, when it's usually closed. Sea lions were rockin it. The dolphins were excited to see people after a few days with no guests :D

Nice theme park for all. make sure you arrive early otherwise you will miss some shows. Shows are only 3-4 times a day. Dolohin show is the best.

I'd never been to this place before but heard so many stories. Despite being an adult without kids, I had a great day here. We went to see a few shows and saw almost all the animals staying there. I loved touching the small sharks and sting rays! Food and drink prices seem lower than average.

Great experience for animal lovers, nice shows and perfect day with a family, the annoying thing is a parking, you should go out every 3 hours to refresh the ticketmy advice is to come early, take 3 hours of parking and go for a first dolphins show, when it is ends continue with another 1-2 hours and go home. In total great experience, highly recommended!

Very nice place to see sea mammals dolphins, sea lions, sea cows or seals. Unfortunately the shows aren't in English but in Dutch and there are no alternatives but your own sources to receive knowledge about the animals. We enjoyed the AquaBella and Sea lions shows the most. If you want to see all attractions and feedings I recommend to enter the park before 14:00. The park closes at 18:00, but there are 12 different shows and places to visit at specific time. The place is also less crowded after 14:00.

Great experience with Dolphin and seal shows. Amazing. The shows explanation is in Dutch and if asked they explain in English too. Staffs are helpful in any show related questions too and explains in English. Food is good though we looked for vegetarians where there isn't any except pastas, the kitchen staff paid special attention and prepared veg sandwiches for us. Thanks for that kind consideration. We enjoyed lot. But commuting to dolphinarium from Amsterdam is a long commute if public transport is chosen. Well worth visit

Disappointing the park is poorly managed and not thought through. You can already notice this at the entrance. Guarded by activists who try to harass you, not very inviting. We purchased our tickets online. They're advertised as not having to wait in line. This is only partially accurate as you still have to wait in line at the actual entrance where everything is explained to every person every time this is your map this is your program this is your coin for the dolphin show ( yeah I didn't get that one either. Don't bother buying their "fastpass" it offers you no additional benefits, service or recognition. It's an additional charge of 10 euros on top of internet entrance fee of 18,75 the VIP seats they advertise are only in 1 venue and are occupied by people who did not pay for this additional pass staff does not do anything about this or offer to help. They seem more keen on selling poor quality flashlights an d poor photo ops with dolphins or sea lions. Food is typical Dutch mostly deep fried everything with the odd sandwich. Staff is trying to help when you have questions but can see they are poorly trained, you'd almost feel bad for them as their actions seem genuine.

Kids (aged 10, 8 and 6) loved it, and so did we. Only €14. Shows spaced out well so that we got to see them all without rushing about or waiting too long. Dolphins were great, watched the show twice. Best day of a 3 week holiday!!

Not a place to visit! Only the dolphin show is worth watching but it seems they do not take care of their animals!

Why would anyone want to visit a dolphinarium? These dolphins are stolen from their families pods as they are migrating past taiji. The older dolphins are slaughtered while these are sold for 100 thousdand dollars. trainers break their spirits by not feeding them. Only time they are fed is when they perform unnatural tricks for the public. Google the cove, google taiji slaughter, google sea Shepard cove guardians, good ric Barry's dolphin project and see for yourself. #emptythetanks #dontbuyaticket

The park has dolpins, many different seals, walrusses and other animals. The park has many shows and enough rooms to explore without shows. It wasn't very busy in the winter time which was nice. The park has indoor and outside places, the visit is nicest if the weather is good.

You'll be done quickly when not watching the shows so I'd recommend seeing as many as possible. The dolphin show was amazing, we loved it!
The park can be a bit pricy but will be lots of fun when you see all the shows ( you can see all of them on one day).response / report this review -

Great aquatic Park. Nice atmosphere. Some exhibits might make you think for a moment how well the animals are treated but mostly it looks good. Prices are expensive as expected.
