Being a seasoned scuba diver and veteran of many a marine park and Aquarium venue I didn't think Gulf World would be much but I was pleasantly surprised. It had several shows and they were just different enough to engage my interest. A bit expensive but they give military and senior discounts.

This is a small park with friendly & helpful staff (think miniature Sea World). The animals appear to be content & well taken care of. Our 7 y/o thoroughly enjoyed our time here. I booked a dolphin & a sea lion meet-n-greet for her ($45/each) which were perfect experiences for a child. If you want to contain costs there are... More

It was a rainy day and we were trying to figure out what to do. It was either this or Wonderworks. Make sure you look for coupons, it can save you $2-3. I am so glad we chose the Gulf World.
