My husband visited back in the 70's then together we visited int he 90's. Recently in 2006 with my son and again this weekend. We love that for less than the cost of addmission to Sea World, you get personal time to feed and touch the dolphins. The staff is extremely knowledgable. Not to mention the oldest dolohin in captivity... more

We ended up going here twice the first time we just paid the entrance fee to go and see the dolphins in their tanks and a trainer came around and did a little show. We wanted to swim with them but you need to make an appointment as they only allow so many per day so we came back a... more

I visited Marineland earlier this week and I will never go again unless they find ways to make it more fun and interesting for the average visitor. I guess if you have hundreds of dollars to spend on a special dolphin encounter then it might be worth it, however for general admission this place is a waste. There is no... more

St. Augustine was a bit far from Kissimmee where we were staying, but I really wanted to live the experience of swimming with dolphins and Discovery Cove was closed for maintenance for the whole week. I’m glad we made the trip. The experience was fantastic! It was a little expensive, but we were lucky we were the only ones there,... more

A very nice experience to visit. Beautifully located next to the Atlantic Ocean. This makes you feel like you are close to the habitat of the Dolphins etc. Swimming with the Dolphins is something one can do here and even if I didn't, I wish I would have. Those who did seemed to have a wonderful time. The entrance fee... more

Recently my husband, two daughters & I went to St.Augustine for vacation. Before we went, I happened upon some information for Marineland, specifically about being able to swim with dolphins! We didn't make our reservations until we arrived in FL, as we were waiting to see how the weather was. (Can't give up a good beach day when you're visiting... more

I took my wife and two teenagers to visit Marineland, hoping they'd enjoy it half as much as I remembered visiting with my parents. Unfortunately, there's not much to see or do unless you want to spend a bunch of money to swim with the dolphins. General admission is $8, and for that you can walk over to the dolphin... more

Marineland barely meets the requirements for handicapped visitors. When we visited in February, my son was in a wheelchair. We had to go around to the rear doors to gain entry because only one of the double doors in the front opens, the other is bolted shut. The staff made him feel like a second class citizen. All of the... more

DO NOT GO!!!! A trip to Marineland this past weekend - my 3-1/2 year old granddaughter was asked to "sign" the disclaimer form. Lucky for us, she can print her name - unlucky for them, had there been a problem I doubt if their form and ridiculous request of her signature would have held up in any court of law.... more

I wasn't sure what to expect when my husband and I took a recent trip here. I had been here as a kid and was surprised to see a lot has changed. This is not your big Florida theme park. This is more personal. You can actually spend all day playing fetch with a dolphin if you want. They toss... more
