travelgip Posted August 23, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I'll be there end of January 2023 and wanted to go there to swim with the dolphins and maybe do some sea lion encounter. Has anyone been here/done that & what did you think? Is it worth the money? How is the park? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjttol Posted August 23, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 23, 2022 We were there in April 2022 on another cruise line with our 8 and 10 yr old granddaughters. We had a really good time. It's a smaller venue than say "Sea World" but the employees, divers, etc. were all very personable and included you in all the shows. My granddaughters did the dolphin swim and loved it. Attached are a couple of photos. The views were beautiful from the rooftop restaurant and the prices for food and drinks were very reasonable. I was glad we decided to do it.

rnfulk Posted August 23, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 23, 2022 It is probably worth it if you swim with the dolphins. If you just go to see the animals and shows you will have a LONG day ahead of you. Just a heads up, the “buffet” is the worst food I’ve ever had. Like half as good as school lunches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joegdvc Posted August 27, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Visited in July 2022. Clean nice place but a four hour excursion on a ship tour was about an hour too long if not paying for the extra experiences (dolphin swim etc.). I have to agree that the included buffet was horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there Taxi's at Ocean World to get back to the port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joegdvc Posted September 16, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 16, 2022 The bus drop off was in front of the park and souvenir stand. It looked like smaller taxis one Uber were there but I would check first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
