I read other reviews raving about the Trainer For A Day at Ocean World. All of them were right! It was the most incredible experience. Complete VIP treatment for the entire day. Contact with all of the animals. Robinson and the rest of the trainers (all of the staff really) was incredible. It was well worth the cost and we... more

Ocean World was as expected... we didn't go in with the high hopes of a Sea World and we weren't disappointed! My wife and I booked the Dolphin Discovery Dive (you scuba with a Dolphin) and loved it! We arrived and received our times for a scuba lesson and our dive. Another couple that we were with booked the Sea... more

Let me just tell you beforehand -- shows and encounters are a MUST. This park is all about shows and encounters, so if you don't watch or participate in them, you won't have much to do. Here is a list of them and a brief description of each: Dolphin show: Around 15-30 minutes long. Watching this show is a MUST... more

If you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience with dolphins, sea lions, sharks, and/or rays, this is a 'must' place to visit. On February 26, 2009 my husband and I visited the park and we had just that type of experience -- a once-in-a-lifetime! There is a program at the park that is not well advertised called "Trainer for the... more

Ocean World Adventure Park is certainly not what I would have expected in a third world country like the DR. The facilities were clean and modern and on a par with the likes of Sea World. I had been told that it was geared toward adventure tourism and not much toward entertaining the casual guest. That perspective could not have... more

I spent 1/2 day at Ocean World last week. It was my second visit, I went 2 years ago with my family, this year I went alone, my main focus was to swim with the dolphins. It is truly an awesome experience to be so up -close and personal with these wonderful mammals- [yes they are mammals ] It is... more
