Manila Ocean Park Reviews

Very educational, only the place should be improved greatly. The place looks old and a little battered if you are to notice it. Nevertheless youll be enchanted with the monster fishes youll be seeing in the park plus the featured shows they offer daily. Just make sure that you rest and sleep early the day before going and reserve early for lunchtime to any decent food service you want to be in the area (Gerrys Grill or North Park Noodles) You need a lot of ENERGY to lasts for a DAY TOUR!!

Its ok..kids got a chance to see those animals upclose. i just dont get why we have to pay more to enter some attraction.. i mean the jelly fish room is just one room. So are other attractions. 500+ for all attraction i guess is fair. They are already earning on all those food stalls. I guess it had become very commercialize. I understand that they need money for then maintenance but...

Educational, fan and my Children really loves the extra ordinary encounter with some Sea creatures

The shows are quite short and photos are a bit expensive.

Love the place. Perfect for family and group bonding.

It's near the airport so I opted to come since I had enough time prior to my flight. The shows are scheduled so better come early in order to catch it. I went there to see the jellyfish exhibit but it wasn't available during my visit. It can get a bit crowded but I don't mind. This place offers a great learning experience for kids.

Even if you enter for free, you never want to go.
One year old baby is also adult fare .. Because it is Sunday, there are many people, but I have to divide it and enter it .. It is hot on the battlefield .. There are no people to guide to the nonsensical facility ..

Can have close contact with many love birds n touch them.

Has lot to offer. From different species of oceans to birds. Defenitely will come back again.

Good collection of sea life. You can also choose several options for your entry ticket thereby choosing which of the seven attractions you'd want to see. Note though that you can only go into the fish aquarium exhibits once, there is no re-entry so make sure to plan for when you want to go see shows outdoors so you can maximise your visit. Plenty of restaurants and fast foods to choose from. No outside food allowed. Interesting array of sea life.

It needs to maintain excitement for some of its long standing attraction station.

I really love Manila Ocean Park, it's so fun! I suggest coming here atleast an hour after it opens because it gets too crowded in the afternoon. If you're planning to buy a ticket to see the Jellyfish something, don't. It's a waste of money. It's just full of jellyfish, nothing more.

One of the best places to treat your kids in Metro Manila.

Come and have your extraordinary adventure Expect many people on tour from all ages almost everyday. Yeah Hahaha. Take my word for it. You should be there early to avoid hassles of lining up for each ride or show. We enjoyed almost all shows that we entered. The animals are incredible. So many animals like varieties of frogs, snakes, playful fishes and definitely a lot more to your amazement Bring your kids here and for senior citizens, too There are free wheelchairs for you to borrow, so you will not find it hard to roam around with a senior citizen or a baby. Enjoy

Nice place to see hypnotic jellyfish, sting rays, sharks, and a lot of other fishies! The water and light show as well as the sealion show is amusing.

Manila Ocean Park was a request of my son for his birthday. The family really enjoyed the Oceanarium (again). But overall the place needs better maintenance and attractions. Chua Tip: it is cheaper to buy tickets on site than metrodeal. ticket for 15 attractions is at 900. metrodeal 8 in 1 deal is at 899 (includes lunch buffet worth 295). it is better to buy ticket for 15 attraction and pay for buffet at 295 on site. but dont expect much from the buffet.

The place is beautiful, needs a bit of renovation though.

This is good for kids to visit. There are so many activities to choose from.

I am just dissappointed when we attended the seal show. For some reason I felt sad for the seal having to perform because they are hungry.

so Cool place ilove the sealion s show the dolphins and more

Good bird and sea lion shows and cool underwater tunnel and the movie themed museum was Awsome

We had a great price from 4T to 995Php due to their current promo.

Educationally ironic as it exhibits Philippine marine species while it's surrounding sea is full of trash! The sea lion and bird show are entertaining as the staff advocate for conservation.

The Oceanarium, fish spa, and crawlers are cool. Some exhibits may need improvement like the Christmas Village and Jellyfish--which I think may need more species for exhibit. The penguins on the other hand look bored. There's a thin line between captivity for conservation-education and exploitation.

Overall, cool place to be.

Great place to learn about marine life and its ecosystem. I have seen how this paved way to learning especially to students and kids. Keep it up!

It is a specification to purchase tickets corresponding to each facility you want to enter
Ashika show, fountain show alone is the best cheapest ticket

The sea creatures within your very eye :) amazing place

been here today and it was a nice experience especially for my kid.
1. barnyard - limited animals but it was good that they put descriptions and educational stuff. *going there - left side of the entrance beside birdhouse*
2. birdhouse - please buy bird seeds, the birds are so cute and nakakakiliti when you feed them :)
3. sharks and stingrays dry encounter - sharks are nocturnal, so you can only watch them at the glass aquarium. stingrays are fun you can touch them. *going there right side of the entrance beside liquid buffet
4. liquid buffet - pancit canton, pork with potato and carrots, chicken adobo, mixed vegetable, pandan jelly and coffee jelly. regular price is 295. better bought it online because it's cheaper.
5. fish spa - it only took 10 minutes, grabeh mas mahaba pa nilakad namin kesa tinagal nmin. better mauna ang oceanarium then fish spa kasi nsa exit ng oceanarium ang fish spa :) grabeh nakakakiliti!
6. oceanarium - wish they had descriptions or names of the fish there. but it was nice nakakabusog sa mata mga isda :)

I love the place so much the sea lion show and also fish spa

This is the best place for all of us we have so many things to learn and the seal show and evening symphony. The best day of my life

great place to bring the family. I often come to this place before when this was not yet built just to get some Vitamin Sea. Its nice to view the sunset here.

Overly crowded and the aquarium exhibits had no signage. At all. It was more educational to go stare at fish at a pet store. At least over there they tell you or have a sign that tells you what you're looking at. Man, they totally missed some opportunities. Also, the evening "symphony" was just random pretty light shows to recorded music. Guess it could have been worse...

Superb, it was a nice experience for a first timer to visit. The scenery under the aquarium tunnel is so amazing and wonderful. This is a best place for kiddos to visit and to have fun with the marine animals by watching them swimming.

nice place!you will learn something about fish,birds and other animals,

Its near! Besides there lots of interesting attractions.

There is a seal show where you can see fish, reptiles and jellyfish.
The return taxi was bad. It is better to use a driver or grab.

the place is small for ocean park, a bit expensive for alnot so good experience, also criwded.

Too crowded. Too hot. Too noisy.. Not maintained. Needs repair on aesthetics. No briefings on do's and dont's.. Visitors need to be disciplined. Dirty food courts.

Room with a view, great place for family with kids, access to the park is discounted,

This is place is perfect for everyone!! family, friends, barkada, name it all!! The thing that I like here is that my children is really love to came here children enjoyed while learning ..I really recommend this place in the busy place of Manila!

Very nice place and highly recommended to go with your family specially kids

I love the place.. The place itself is amazing. The animals are so cute specially when the sea lion are performing... Its a good family outing...

Good for young and old. But the management should limit the capacity per day and needs to renovate and upgrade the place. It is super hot inside. C'mon. I am.sure you're earning a lot. Make your customers feel comfortable. Words of encouragement. ..

Good place to go with the family but little confusing

Good for the first time with family loving atmosphere love the bird show n sea lion show. Lots and lots of species of fishes and amphibians lizards etc. An awesome place to go out with your group if you have interest in ocean life

Quiet with no pretensions for 40 euros per night in 2, clean and tidy. They changed sheets and towels every day.

,the pLace is amazing.. it was an awesome experience..
i love it... and I'd like to come back to try the other venue... like aquanaut, mermaid and many more...

It was awesome to the 99999999lv!!! I really love the ambiance, the fish spa (oh gosh) the aquarium! I took a lot of pictures in yexel's museum goshhh it was really awesome to see a human size iron man and star wars cast etc. It was really lovely thank youuu

great place for kids to enjoy and spend family time together

So many different kind of fish and lots of water pokemon to catch..

It's nice to have a lovely aquaria place ik the heart of Manila

Attractions are awesome. If you're a family I suggest you go on weekdays. Weekends are horrible as there are lots of groups doing big group tour. That's when it gets tiring with long lines and restaurant not being able to accomodate the large group of people. Lines in attractions, bathrooms and restaurant.

The theater was so hot, audience face the sun in the afternoon. People in the front row was all standing with umbrella, made the audience at the back cannot see the performance and no guard care about that.

Ok place to bring the children to see the fishes. Most of the fishes doesnt have names outside, so you dont really know what you see.

Watershow was descent, but the free show at Okada is much better.

Amazing if you're visiting for the first time. Afterwards it gets a bit repetitive.

Manila Ocean Park is the best ocean park than Cebu Ocean Park. There is fish spa, it would make you tickle if you go to the fish spa. But fish spa is the nicest area in MOP. There are many canteens here and some cafes, too! The park is not louzy, it's the coolest park and the cleanest park than Cebu! You could buy food too! I love this place! Even there is upside down world like Spiderman!

The tunnel-type aquarium looked bright and large.
It was interesting to be able to feed the penguins.
