We went on a cloudy day as the beach wasn't a good option. It was pricey to get in (about £28 per adult) but our 2 and 3 year old were free. The set shows were great and included a dolphin show, a sea lion and seal show, tropical bird show, birds of prey show and an aquarium. With the... more

I've been to loads of these Marine Attractions as I love them and I can say this one would rate as really bad. It is expensive, the shows are drawn out. The only thing I thought was good was the amount of Dolphins they had. If your down to your last few days with not enough time to do all... more

We booked through the kiosk at the Modelo supermarket and got a %10 ticket discount. It cost approx 12 euros in a taxi from the rank outside the supermarket which is halfway between the new and old towns. Big queues at 10am when it opened but they went down really quick. 1st dolphin show of the day at 1030 was... more

Booked this trip from our appartments for reasonable price. Only a 15-20 minute coach ride from Albufeira. Very enjoyable day, dolphin show & bird of prey show were the highlights. Sealion show was okay - aimed more at the children. Unfortunately, we didnt manage to catch the Tropical Birds show. The cafeteria was clean and very reasonably priced which was... more

Booked this trip through our hotel in Praia da Rocha for 30 Euros. This included transfers and park entrance fee. There are lots of displays throughout the day to keep you occupied. The dolphin show was particularly good. By contrast the sealion show was a little too focused on the human actors rather than the animals - not sure if... more

We sisited Zoo Marine for a day out not expecting much but were very pleasantly surprised. Booked through Thomson's and were picked up near our hotel at 11am and returned again at 6pm so spent the whole day there. There was so much to see and do it seemed too short a time. The wildlife shows were excellent with a... more

Visited Zoo Marine in March on a Sunday. The wasn’t much open when we got inside, it didn’t say anything was closed on the outside. Not too much of a problem as the day was filled with shows to see. We got there at 1030 and was finished by 1500 but it was worth the 20 euros to get in.... more

I visited Zoomarine with a family group of 5 (age range 3 to 69) in March 2009. The swimming pool, train and several other attractions were closed (presumably for refurbishment). The site is quite small so easy to walk round and go back to the rides (such as roller-coaster, merry-go-round and big wheel) or other animals (aquarium, crocodiles, birds). We... more

Visited Zoo Marine 25/08/08. Clean place with plenty of places to eat - including Picnic area for those who prefer their own food. Enjoyed the Dolphin show it was really great similar to shows i have seen in America, However the Dolphin interaction programme was fully booked for our whole 10 days in Portugal so didint get chance to experience... more
