This is a very confused Theme Park. The marine animal attractions are fantastic. There are some great rides. But the rides are spread out thru desolate fields. The dragon themed roller coaster is a great ride, but the landscaping has not been maintained. There are weeds everywhere and the shrubbery is out of control. This ride had a great mini... more

They should be transport rides between attractions, there's just too much walking to be done. Parking area should have signs : A, B,C.....or in numbers.. so people can remember where they parked. Huge area for a themepark, but there's not much to see. IAlso there's a need to inplace more exciting rides & attractions. more

It is nothing like I remember when I was a kid. Too much walking, way too overpriced and not very much interaction with the animals. The show was great but very short. The killer whales that used to be such a main attraction are now just like another fish in an aquarium. I really didn't enjoy my day there. My... more

This was a waste of time, my 3yr old wanted to go, and I can say I took her, but what a disappointment. The park is mostly open and the heat was really bad, everything was overpriced, the shows are disorganized, and the animals look like they are not cared for. There are no employees to help you, no signs... more

This place pretty much has what the commercial says it does... a few marine mammals, the sky screamer (great view from what I hear... too chicken to try) and the swing. Other than that and the exception of some other minor rides and 6 or so little kid rides (under 5)... there is nothing. The park covers lots of land... more

I'd go into great detail about what a waste of time & money this attraction was but I couldn't say it any better than dhuber23 already has. As I read his review I kept nodding my head in agreement. I think the only thing he left out was that after you paid for and ate your expensive meal they only... more

Marineland is disappointing on so many levels. Our family went there last week during our visit to Niagara Falls. We have two children, ages 2 and 4, and we thought they would enjoy seeing shows and learning about dolphins and such. The park itself is enormous but mostly empty. You pass through long distances of empty forest between each attraction,... more

We arrived at 9:30am and expected our daughter to last until lunch time - it was 6pm when we finally dragged her away!!! Her favourite was definitely the King Waldorf show - ask her about her trip and she'll tell you repeatedly about the "girls in red" that swam with fishies and the fishies jumped over the girls and then... more

I was expecting a "Marine" atmosphere at Marineland not Medieval castles and dragons. Who is King Waldorf? Did they mean King Neptune the mythological god of the sea? There was a Viking ride and that was a stretch.....Vikings have ships,ships float on water and marine animal live in water......well if that was my only concern about this park I wouldn't... more

My wife and I visited Marineland during our August Niagara trip. While previous reviews helped to manage our expectations, the experience still left us somewhat disappointed. On the plus side, there was no additional charge for parking. The main show/attraction featuring seals, walrus, and dolphins was entertaining. The beluga whales in general were quite the characters. And if you're an... more
