Marineland Ltd.,Mediterraneo Marine Park Review

Great place cheap day out very informative, was wonderful interacting with the animals

A beautiful but a bit sad place. It was wonderful to see beautiful dolphins, seals, sea lions, parrots and other beautiful animals. There is where to eat, everything is carefully thought out.

I had nice time
Dolphins was my dreams
Coach Totall nice

This is the best place I have been to and believe me that I have been to similar attractions in many countries and just in Malta was the youngest service and animal caregivers. I RECOMMEND !!!

There is nothing to hang on, unless someone loves animals and wants to perform

Everything seemed very worn out. My grandson swam with dolphins, but there was a lot more interest in taking pictures / video and selling these to us. There was not much swimming with the dolphins. The weeds bumped loudly everywhere, and it was highly abused. Many of the enclosures and cages were empty.
It was too expensive compared to the experience.

The dolphin show is fun. Swimming with the dolphins is blissful.

The place is absolutely fantastic! All the shows are well prepared, and very interestig. The best part was swimming with the dolphins, where you can play with them in the water, touch them and generally have a really good time. You get what you pay for. It would be a 5+ experience, but...

When you swimm with the dolphins they take pictures of you, and afterwards you may go to "photo shop" to purchase them. However they charge each picture 20 euros per person (2 pictures of same person is 30 euros and third picture is gratis). If there are 2 people on the picture they charge it 40 euros. I was with my wife and we wanted one pic of me, one of her and one togheter which they charged 60 euros. Plus, on the side note, once we got to the "photo shop" they told us we have to buy at least 3 pictures (of only 1 person or 3 overall). That was annoying because nobody has to buy anything if they don't want to. We wanted to have a nice memory so we went along with it, but otherwise it's a total rip-off. If you don't want to spend so much money, just avoid photo shop.

Poorly. Short shows. Not very interesting. Very long breaks. And, unfortunately, you can see everything in 20 minutes. Park through the show plan is trying hard to keep us here all day. I do not recommend

Transport issues let this down. Transfer turned up nearly an hour late so we had to get our own taxi to save missing our swim with dolphins experience.

Not much to see, very average. If we don't swim with the dolphins we can't even see them !!!!

Excellent place. Highlight has to be the dolphin show. Such amazing mammals but my son enjoyed the various reptiles too. No sea lions due to site redevelopment works ongoing.

Really amazing, the sealions and the dolphins and show they behave. But it has to be more space for the animals and the park has urgently to be renovated

The entrance price includes all shows (dolphin, lion seal, parrot ...) To swim with a dolphin, you must book an appointment in advance (1-2 weeks). Photography with a dolphin is 20 EUR. with seal 12. Parrot feeding is free, wavy, nymph and other parrots eat from your hands. We really liked it, they seem to love animals.

what a show!!!! if your in malta this is a must place to visit

Dolphin and other pet shows. For an additional fee you can also feed. Very cool place during a trip to Malta. I recommend to everyone not only the small ones but also the big ones :) nobody will be bored

Not as large as I expected but the animal presentations are very good. For 20 you can be photographed petting a dolphin and receive the very large photo in a folder. Staff are very friendly. Not a wide range of food in the cafe.

If you have been to a similar park like in the usa then there is no reason to waste your time and money on this. It's a small marine park which is not in a pristine condition and the dolphins and sea lion look cramped in their surroundings. If you never been to a similar themed marine park then I guess it's a reason to go as in Malta there are not lot of things to do in any case. Shows are short in duration: 2 dolphins in the show and one seal with a sea lion in the other show. It's inhumane to force a sea lion to stand on its flaps. I've been to similar themed shows in various countries and this specific in Malta was the worse as the premises and performance made me feel depressed for the poor animals. Entrance 15 and to swim with dolphins @ 115-135 depending on the season. There are some tortoises and some reptiles as well.

Guaranteed fun for young and old.
Professional staff, many activities and opportunities for swimming with dolphins.

They obviously care and love the animals and the shows were very good but the park itself is looking very shabby and run down.

I fulfilled my dream of swimming with dolphins there, I will not judge if it is expensive or worth it. The park is small but well-groomed, the shows are interesting, you do not feel that any animal was used there, the dolphins that are there, everyone has their own history and they were not there, they were saved. Their guardians really take care of them and it is me tourists who behave with them, with swimming options there is no hanging on the fins and rides because it's not a horse, you can touch it for him, swim past, see under the water in a mask and hear as he sings under the glass. If someone wants to pretend to be the daughter of Triton, riding a dolphin is not there.

Amazing experience at reasonable price ..glad we went in the end all fears of feeling bad or thinking its cruel were dismissed after seeing the dolphins and trainers had a visable loving bond like a man n his dog dolphins relaxed and happy in numerous conected large enclosures ..
Knowing they are happy n looked after there giving people the up close amazing experience with these amazing intelligent beautiful creatures is unreal and better than them in the ocean with there days numbered less n less with the riseing number of fisherman dedicated to the hunt of these dolphins to make a living from the demand for tuna ect.
Really happy with the whole experience and the New knowledge of how amazingly intelligent these dolphins are its incredible. .rather not eat tuna anymore and do view these parks differently now.

Nothing exceptional. Toilets terribly dirty and the staff cares. The exaggerated cost if you take into account the size of the park and the attractions

Good presentation with dolphins as well as a unique experience swimming with them! The restaurant and the toilets and changing rooms-showers need urgent sanitation ...

Having seen the shows in previous years was disappointed how they had scaled them down. Also cost of photos is a bit over priced especially when the dolphin, sea lion and coati ones are 20 but have a smaller option for other photos and larger ones are 12. Taking a family is very expensive as only 1 person allowed in photo at a time. Feeding the birds you used to get a bag of weed for 1 but now a tablespoon in an egg cup for 1.

Great place to go see the dolphins and there training and learn about them animals are a little short and far between in this place they have a handful of reptiles snakes lizards and spiders few turtles 2 sea lions male and female a bird enclosure and few parrots then the dolphins obviously amazing animals would go here again just to see the dolphins

Amazing place to visit well catered for adults as well as children.

The Sea Lion and Dolphin shows were excellent. Even the bird show was, however I cant stop thinking about how the birds have plucked all their feathers on their belly s due to stress. It was very disheartening to see. The staff doing the show were excellent, very engaging and enthusiastic. Would have given it a 4 star rating but the blonde ***** at the bird show was extremely rude and very unprofessional. If she hates her job there that much, leave. Simple as that. Don t take it out on everyone else and treating them like they re the bane of your existence. I ve since read other reviews from people on here who have had a similar experiences and the misfortune of meeting her.

The dolphin show was the best part off the day plus you can interact with them for 60 Euro each we're you get to touch them and get your photo done with one off them,highly recommended!! So gutted I didn't actually pay to get in the water with them to swim.
Great day out deffo worth a visit!!

A few attractions, but generally ok. You can feed the birds. You can have a picture for an additional 7 or 10. In 65 you can touch a dolphin. For 130 you can swim with him.

We didn't visit this place but anywhere that keeps Dolphins in captivity is somewhere that no human being in their right mind should visit. The pool that the 2 poor Dolphins are kept in is Tiny. In this day and age treatment of intelligent social animals like this is disgusting! Don't go you will be appalled! We actually went to the waterpark next door and could see in to the Dolphins enclosure!

An experience impossible to describe: bathe in the midst of dolphins, caress them and interact with them, a unique emotion! Beyond this, the park offers the possibility of attending two hilarious shows, one of the parrots and the other of a sea lion. If you visit mortar, treat yourself to this emotion!

Great place to go and see animals being miss treated and in the worst possible conditions they could be. Still cant believe animal welfare hasnt closed this place diwn already!

Myself and my boyfriend arrived here shortly after noon when there were two ladies on the reception desk, the older of which asked that I email them the tickets I purchased online which I thought was very odd.

We were then informed by the younger lady that we had missed 5 of the 7 animal shows - information on the website is incorrect so be aware. She then said that if we wanted we could see the dolphin and lizard shows and come back tomorrow to see the rest. After numerous attempts of emailing the tickets they finally came through and I asked the older lady what the procedure was to come back tomorrow. She said that this was not possible and we either go today OR come back tomorrow. There was a back and forth between the ladies, the look on the older ones face was like thunder. I said it didn't matter and walked into the park.

This park is in a state of disrepair I really feel bad for the animals. It looks like a tornado has ripped through the place and several of the exhibits are closed. The dolphin show was entertaining and the trainer's do a good job from what I could see. We didn't bother to stay for the reptile show because the place was a kip and we wanted to go to the aquarium so decided to leave and spend more time there.

The dolphin show is worth seeing!
There are only a few other animal species there.
You crossed the complex quickly.
Everyone has to decide for themselves whether it is worth 120 to swim with dolphins.

Dolphin beach will surely be beautiful but you will also have coffee and have a great restaurant with many choices.

Unforgettable experience with dolphins ..... Fantastic !!!

Beautiful marine park the main attractions are the shows with dolphins and the one with sea lions, also there is an area with reptiles and a presentation of parrots, inside there is a restaurant unfortunately the choice is very poor very little and then missing a menu for children. Unfortunately not all attractions are accessible to people in wheelchairs, another negative point is the duration of the really short shows, for example the one with dolphins just over 10 minutes. The children's play area is too ephemeral and there is also a need to add something. It is possible for a fee to interact with the dolphins and even swim with them. The cost for 15 minutes varies from 120 to 135 euros. All in all it is worth it. worth it but to improve

Great place for all family, do not read a negative feedback's, just take your great mood, food and family members and have a perfect time:) Enjoy!!

A fantastic way to spend the day at the splash park.
Lots to do kids love it
Brilliant

Paying the swim with the dolphins, you then have access to all the other presentations of the park, with parrots, with sea lions, with the coati, and then with the dolphins again, where they explain different things about animals and they are get games done and evolutions! Really nice!

Awesome swimming with dolphins. The park really cares about the animals they have in their care. A good day out with the kids and the staff were warm and friendly too

This church had just been restored and it's very nice @ 2018. Cool work, whit a nice walk round that cost and a nice swimming zone too. Cool and dog friendly aria too.

Omg had the best time ever here.i swam with dolphins.i would go back and do it all over again

Great place , great people, and a very great experience with reptiles, seals, sea lions, birds + parrots and dolphins

I woundn't give a half star to a place where dolphins are maltreated.

A bit high value for money! We went there to hang out with the dolphins, they say it is by small group but it was with 15 people! And the rest of the park and more than riquiqui and the vivariums are ridiculous sizes :( and if we are just going to visit the park we do not see the marine animals it's a shame ...

A very nice park, unfortunately only a few visitors and difficult to understand English

It was the best day of my life swimming with the beautiful dolphins and the dolphin trainer we had was absolutely amazing young lady called claudia thank you so much

Quite a small marine park, so don't expect more than is advertised on their website. But the shows they put on are cute, the staff are friendly and clearly care about the animals, which are happy, and a lot of them taken as rescues.

Worth a visit but don't expect a busy day of activities!

A wonderful presentation of dolphins and sea lions. It is a pity that the price of the ticket (16 euros) does not include bird feeding (you have to pay extra (12 euros).

VERY expensive for what they offer. The parrot attraction is cool but 60 just to take a picture with a dolphin was terrible value.

Huge price, there is nothing to do between the dolphin and lion shows...
Restaurant is very expencive...

I didn't go there because it could have been much more beautiful if all the animals were free and not in pools or cages.... animals need to be free just like us and not somewhere where people could get entertained by them

Bought my wife the swimming with dolphins experience and she absolutely loved it. Highly recommend for this experience.

I really enjoyed the visit, but the presentations could be a little longer (15-20 minutes each)

My 6 year old daughter loved the shows (especially the dolphins). The teams are educational and gentle with animals. But the park is really small and dilapidated (lack of maintenance ... A renovation would be appreciated). The pools are really ridiculous ... and I am surprised that this park is still allowed to present animals in such cramped infrastructure ...

Kids loved it. Great entertainment for all the family

It is super ok location. Show with parrots, dolphins, sea lions, etc ...

This was a good place for the kids although there were only around 20 visitors in the whole place. We got to do everything. The place is quite small and I would think in the summer when busy it will not be worth the entrance fee.

The shows were good and educational, notably the dolphin one, but other than that the park has little to offer. A handful of turtles and parrots is about it. If you have a dream about swimming with dolphins, then this is the place for you. Prepare to fork out 150 in addition to the admission fee, though.
