Manila Ocean Park Reviews

Great place to visit with kids. Not quite the same as other ocean park in Asia, but it s good enough. They have scheduled shows and other treats. Have fun.

We have a lots of fun. Good for entertainment especially for the children. We it's clean and affordable. You can see all different kinda of sea creatures. It's amazing place. It's like you are in the ocean. The sea lion was fantastic. I love them and we have a great time. Its full of fun. We love it.

We went here last month unexpectedly, a Field Trip :) We've experienced the FISH SPA and we enjoyed it because it was fun and tickling :D There are many good memories in this place that I always want to cherish :) I love the Fountain Show <3 I'd love to come back here and make memories again :)

It was my first time to visit this place. When I was a child, everytime we would go to Manila I would always hope that visiting Ocean Park would be one of our family's iterinary but that never happened until now. Even as an adult I was in awe of all their shows, and the place did not fail me at all. The staff were also accomodating. I just wish mire attractions would be added and maybe the show especially the bird show that we watched. I would suggest that they would make a different schedule for it because people were not able to appreciate the show because of te scorching heat. I think they have group packages and they can schedule a different show for your group too. Most of all my 3 year old daughter enjoyed it and it was very educational.

smaller than Thailand's sea world and smaller sharks but it's fun enough for young children

Good place to visit with family and friends. Lots of sea creatures to see.

Pls improve the place and lessen S talls. Its hard to find the areas of wonders and the staff are not enthusiastic with their job.

A bit pricey, but a good place to bring children on special occasions to be entertained and and at the same time enrich their world view.

Disappointing. I thought it would host way more fishes... the aquarium visit takes maximum 20 min if you walk really slow.

Went there with 2 kids 5yo and 7yo.
It is overpriced, and I am glad I had some metrodeal coupons. But still.
It was crowded (but it was on a Sunday), so that didn't help with the overall experience.
Still, even taking this out of the equation:

The oceonarium, despite having some beautiful specimens, including huge ones and rare ones, it doesn't make up for: the lack of maintenance of the aquariums and for beaing an all-around fake habitats (everything is concrete/plastic: rocks, algaes, corals)
Many aquariums are missing some quick card depicting the species present in them.
Also, there is no aircon in a number of rooms, making it even harder to enjoy.

Sharks and rays encounter: the high point for the kids, since they could touch a ray. But not much more than that, if anything really.

Jellies exhibit: most of it is a lot of the same, although a few aquariums are indeed showcasing some different species. Still overall disappointing in terms of diversity.

Sea Lion show: not sure if it is because I've seen others before, and they're all kind of the same, but nothing really exciting there. Not bad either I guess.

Symphony evening show: quote from my 7yo girl: "it's boring". We were totally unimpressed. People were even leaving the show before it ended.

Plenty of things to see, helpful staff. The food there was average. But the ticket was cheap so this is a good place to spend a day with your kids.

Well I'm from London and my gf Philippines. We went to see how it was and I was surprised. How good it is, well done manila

Its a great place for holiday...wonderfull ive enjoyed it

Great experience for kids n adult n also seniors! There are wheelchair or the seniors who can't walk for a long time. There are foods for the one who are hungry. Shoes for the one whose shoes has broken or rotten . Toys for kid. Souvenirs from MOP n Nice shows..

Best place for educational tours with an all around experience and interaction with animals.

Rest assured that animals are taken care well.

Great place for kids and family. But I'm skeptical about the use of animals for shows.

Got robbed by a photographer named (John Amalkene). He won't give change properly. So be careful. Employees aren't warm.

I wish management would hire a different set of employees. Someone who's honest and hospitable.

It was my first time in ocean park, wasn't really expecting much but I also did not expect seeing that much garbage floating in the water beneath the area where they put the eagles. That area looked the saddest of them all. I did not take a picture because I was so disgusted, I immediately went back outside. I hope the management keep their environment clean at all times. The aquarium that held the penguins was so blurry, it did not give justice to the beauty of the penguins.

great for kids lots of fishes, productive and fun activities

A little expensive place but I think the oceanarium and sea lion show wag great.

Wasn t able to enjoy that much during our visit because of the rain but the good thing here is that you ll still be able to enjoy it indoors.
However, there are some areas which really need to improve and exert extra effort.

First, the Birds of Prey Kingdom. The are so trash in the water as if it was a pumping station. The park needs to make sure the cleanliness of the area because of the birds inside. (I m not an expert or something and just sharing my opinion)

Worth the visit. Fantastic variety of wildlife and brilliant tanks. Good family visit.

Pretty old water park deserves a refresh
Personal not really very pros

My kids love it but i feel it can have more improvement.

Showcase is a bit less than i expected but it still has a big soace for add ons

I am not so happy about the augmented reality. On the list of attractions under my package, it was included and the last entry is by 5:15 and this is from 10am-6pm Nobody told us that this augmented reality is only until 5:30 for today. Plus, regardless if they will inform us or not that this attraction is only until 5:30, then I think they have to update the schedule of this attraction.

We were there 1st day 0f jan,enj0yed s0 much but was saddened t0 kn0w that 3d museum is n0t there anym0re..excited t0 take pictures w/3d paintings p nman.,,

It isn't as exciting as what I'm seeing in its page or advertisements.

hope theres a price so that ill know how much ill bring

MOP has evolved into a good place to bring your family, with its numerous offerings and activities that everyone can enjoy. It's a good family bonding day trip.

Being in Manila does not visit Manila Ocean Park, it would be a pity, a really fantastic experience.

A good getaway for people who does not want to go far to be amused.

You will be entertained but after the entertainment you will felt guilt as you will witness that the animals are poorly treated inside this facility, I highly recommend skipping and not supporting an entertainment that results to maltreatment and enclosure of more animals

One of the best places to visit in Manila, although not as good as Okinawa.
There are a few more things to see besides the aquarium.

Attraction were nice. The Rest Room are messy and smelly.

One of the best places to visit, excellent and you see, fish inside molds, glass characteristic frankness is an enjoyable and unforgettable experience

Great place to watch the sunset, sea lion show, water dance show

The fare is quite expensive, but it also has its value, that is to come early, it is not worth it after noon

Expensive but worth it. Been here twice but still never fails to amaze me

has potential... but lacks something. i wish there was more to see. the pricing is a joke by the way. i feel its too expensive for what it offers. at least the places to eat inside are pretty decent.

We enjoyed the sea lion show. The oceanarium and the light symphony..also the birds of prey and feeding the birds

We were a bit disappointed because some of the places we paid are no longer available without telling us when we bought the ticket.

The last time I came here was the kinder I was on a field trip

The place itself is pretty good, but overloaded with school field-trips ruined the experience for us. Perhaps better to go during the weekdays.
