It was an absolutely amazing experience to see the dolphins perform. I was blown away at the bond the trainers and the animals have, I can't imagine the amount of training and work that went into this amazing performance. If you're in the area it is a must see!! If you can, definitely go for the royal swim and swim with the dolphins. A truly once in a lifetime experience

This place is great if you want to book an animal encounter otherwise not worth the price for just general admission. The website wasn't clear that general admission was INCLUDED in the dolphin encounter so l ended up buying general admission also, that was non refundable. They need to make a change to the wording online. Also the email I received stated that there would be photos "for purchase" after the dolphin encounter yet they were actually included. The dolphin encounter was amazing and such a once in a lifetime experience. The photos didn't turn out that great though. A lot of the photos I received were very over exposed the camera settings need to be changed to correct this issue. There weren’t any areas to change after the dolphin encounter, so I had to change my clothes in a dirty bathroom stall. The rest of gulf world outside of the dolphins was pretty small. The enclosures were also super small for the animals.

The Royal Swim was amazing to say the least! The dolphins can easily lift you out of the water. We felt safe the whole time. The pictures came out great and easy to download. The park admission was included. Parking free. And the food at the grill was surprisingly delicious. I highly recommend this experience!

Fun little park!! Perfect size for young kids and pretty reasonable priced.
Has small exhibits of penguins, alliagtors, and birds. Also has a large pool with a few animals like a nurse shark and large sea turtle.
There was only one sea lion but it was a fun little show with it hopping in and out of its pool and staff sharing other information about sea lions.
We loved the sting ray exhibit, that was the best part!! That was the coolest thing to feed and touch them!
Also enjoyed the dolphin show!! I was impressed with the training as I used to visit sea world when I was young and the dolphin exhibit was comparable to that.
Overall we enjoyed it. Only thing I could add was maybe to update the little playground area.

For an aquarium, I expected to see more fish, especially ones that are local to the area. We did see dolphins, parrots, sting rays and sea lions. There were also penguins and other random enclosures. I would not say this was your typical aquarium. The highlight of our day was definitely the dolphins. It was worth it to see the dolphin show alone.
