    Great experience, highly recommended for anyone that likes water and water related activities. You can tell they are still trying to figure out how to deal with the larger crowds, but only minor issues. (You can get your pictures online people, calm down! Don't waste your time in line, enjoy the park, that is what you paid for after all.) We swam with the dolphins in the VIP package. If you've never done this before, it is worth every penny. Amazing experience and amazing animals. Note: Souvenirs were significantly less expressive here, albeit still overpriced. $5 for large coffee, $10 for cheap larimar earrings, $6 snow globes, etc.

    Loved the entire park. It's smaller and more intimate than sea world but totally worth the visit. Our guide called himself the "Dominican Rock" and introduced us as the Rock family from Virginia in all the shows. It was super fun! He made our day!

    (Translated by Google) The site is very exciting and welcoming, but this company is more focused on the business of making money than pleasing customers, I say this, because it is not fair for a person to go from x site of their country to enjoy, with the reason take away beautiful memories and these people do not allow one to take their own photos, since they themselves have their photographers and throw their photos so that people feel obliged to buy their photos and that I do not see as freedom of expression, since they They do not consider the cost of the trip and the entrance, in my case we were 3 people and we participated in 3 activities, which cost almost 11 thousand pesos and not being able to take their own photos I see it very unfair. I, like my friends, left very upset by that type of marketing they have. They throw their photos and in the end, if you want that, memories of all the activities we participate in, we had to pay almost $ 200 for those digital photos without us being tourists and without them knowing the sacrifice of others. I am a hotelier for more than 15 years, and in my work I care that the guest feels as comfortable as possible with the service we provide and that has brought us good results. I'm not commenting, but I think this information is something that everyone interested in going should know and the owner of this attraction should analyze. (Original) El sitio es muy emocionante y acogedor, pero esta empresa está más concentrada en el negocio de ganar dinero que complacer a los clientes, digo esto, porque no es justo que una persona vaya de x sitio de su país a disfrutar, con el motivo de llevarse lindos recuerdos y estas personas no permitan que uno tome sus propias fotos, ya que ellos mismos tienen sus fotógrafos y tiran sus fotos para que las personas se sientan obligadas a comprarles sus fotos y eso no lo veo como libertad de expresión, ya que ellos no consideran el costo del viaje y la entrada, en mi caso éramos 3 personas y participamos en 3 actividades, las cual costo casi 11 mil pesos y no poder tomar sus propias fotos lo veo muy injusto. Yo al igual mis amigos salimos muy disgustado por ese tipo de mercadeo que tienen. Ellos tiran sus fotos y al final si uno quiere eso recuerdos de todas las actividades que participamos debíamos de pagar por esas fotos digitales casi 200 dólares sin nosotros ser turistas y sin ellos saber el sacrificio de los demás. Soy hotelero con más de 15 años, y en mi trabajo se preocupa que el huésped se sienta lo más cómodo con el servicio que brindamos y eso nos ha traído buenos resultados. No soy de comentar, pero creo que esta información es algo que todos los interesados en ir deberíamos saber y el dueño de esta atracción debería analizar.

    Been to this place twice and enjoyed my time there just as much the second time as the first. The animals seemed to be enjoying themselves too. So all us animal lovers can rest at night knowing that visiting this place doesn't bring any negative treatment. The handlers really care for their animals. Go and enjoy, have fun, and make wonderful memories.

    Very nice place that is well kept up. The staff is there for you. The animals here seem to be well treated. It a full family fun day. Bring a bathing suit even if you are not swimming with the dolphins. Lots to do and see. Don't forget to visit the love bird cage. Pools and water slides for all ages.

    What an incredible experience, and we have been to Discovery Cove in Orlando.. but this was a more intimate interaction with the dolphin, and the staff was very friendly and made everyone feel comfortable in the interaction. Bonus, my granddaughter who's 2, was able to be with us this time. The snorkel part is small and limited but worth it. We got to interact with the sea lion, which was so much fun. The beach area is awesome, and so was feeding the birds. The best part was that it wasn't crowded and food, drink selections were plenty.

    From the shuttle from our resort to the location itself, we had a great time. The dolphins, sea lions, sharks, macaws, etc. Everything was incredible. The kids giggled the day away. We had an amazing time and highly recommended it. The water slides were down for maintenance but that did not deter the amount of fun we had.

    I loved every minute of this place when I was in vacation. There is something for everybody to do and a huge variety of shows, immersion experiences and other activities to do. They have a water park with slides, inflatable climbing things, a scuba diving tank that is free to do!!! best experience I have ever had and my dream of swimming with the dolphins came true! I would 10000% go back again if I could.

    Visited Ocean World while on a cruise excursion. To be honest the main reason we visited was for the Dolphin Encounter. This was an amazing experience and we were extremely happy we did this. The rest of the park is very nice, clean (including restrooms) and offers several shows and animal exhibits.

    We came with an excursion group from the Carnival Cruise line. Carlos was our tour guide, and let me tell you that we struck the jackpot with him. We needed assistance for one of our friends, and he took it on with a smile on his face and a skip in his step. This was no easy feat considering the terrain of the park. The comradery that the staff had with each other made the visit even more enjoyable. We did the dolphin, shark, and sea lion encounter, and I loved every bit of it. The day went by so fast. I would have loved to have done more. The park is just the right size to explore with a family that has small children. If you forget anything, their shops are well stocked with all the essentials and prices that are fairly priced for a last-minute buy. You can not take pictures during the encounters, but the picture package is really well priced, and it's nicer to have a professional taking them so you can just enjoy what you're doing. We got the package that had all of the pictures and a video. It was around $100, and there were 3 of us who were able to share the cost. We really had a spectacular day, and we're able to help a friend check something off her bucket list.

    Great experience. First of all the registration was very easy I bought the tickets at the desk and to my surprise very offordable when I looked online I was prompted with a higher price than at the front desk. We got the day pass which includes the dolphin, sharks, sea lions and bird shows. It also includes snorkeling if I am not mistaken and going in the pirate pool( you will have yo pay additional to take pictures with the animals if that is not included in the package you buy). Our favorites were the bird and the dolphin show which was the best. They also provide one meal they have 3 different options and they offer you all of them if you want. Also the alcoholic beverages were not expensive me and my husband got piña coladas for just 5 dollars ( I don't know about the other beverages). Overall wonderful experience I would definitely recommend.

    It's worthy!! Extremely beautiful to expend the whole day with family and friends, just make sure to be there early in the morning to enjoy it. Be aware, that beverages are not included in the buffet, not even water and they're expensive. They take plenty pictures throughout the day, during every show or encounter, so you have the option to buy them. However even when they offered the price in dollars, they make the charge in Dominican pesos. We paid for the encounter with the dolphins, were the pictures plus a video was US$70 total for the package we chose. They take advantage of it and said that the equivalent to US$1 are RD$57, when one dollar is worth RD$55... for consequence the final charge in my credit card was almost US$73. If you're advertising a price in dollars, take the payment in dollars and don't make it to your convenience, cause most clients have international credit cards.

    A unique experience to watch different marine animals perform tricks and you can actually book a personal encounter to pet and be in close contact with dolphins and more. There is a variety of animal attractions available, pools and water slides, restaurant, gift shop, snorkeling in a huge fish tank, and a simulated beach. Entrance cost per head could be a bit on the high end for locals, but it's worth the experience.

    I had an amazing time here at Ocean World . There was something for everyone to enjoy. The marine life and shows were cool. I especially like hanging out on the beach on both the water floats and then chilling out in a hammock with an island drink. Lunch served was delicious. True island spices. And of course, their souvenir shop was wonderful with a large array of gifts and specialties.

    Outstanding Place to Visit. The animals are all well cared for, and the employees are very informative and accommodating. There are many options for your ocean world experience. We chose the Dolphins, Sharks and Sealions and All were absolutely amazing. The Park also offers great food. forgot to add they also have a very nice beautiful bird sanctuary! and good shopping opportunities for souvenirs, gifts ideas and photo options !!!!

    The treatment is really nice. The personnel is very knowledgeable, kind and willing to help. Since we are in a pandemic they are making sure to follow safety protocols, keeping distance, and educating the visitors. Ocean World is very organized. Based on what I saw, the animals are being taken care of, being fed properly and the trainers give them love. The are only four food options for the basic package, burguer, two types of pasta and fried chicken with fries (soda included) Food is average, and you have to pay extra for drinks, and water. Water slides are really cool and soft. Overall, it was nice experience. Not the best, but nice.

    I had been wishing to come for a long time already and for some reason every time I though I could do it, something happened. But, I finally got the chance to not only go but to experience the swimming with the dolphins which was one of my dreams since I was a baby girl. Let me tell you that I was beyond happy, every single animal there looks happy, the dolphins are happy and they are super friendly and stole my heart. The area is beautiful and well taken care of.

    I came here years ago for the first time ever and we had an amazing experinece. This second time, when purchasing the tickets, the sales person "upgraded" my experience (sold me a more expensive entrance) assuring me access to other events not included in the lower priced package so that I could enjoy "certain events". When we entered the park, while walking around, we found out the "extra events" were not open. I did not want to make a big deal out of it and just enjoy the day. When leaving the park I was aporoached by employees and I advised them of what had happened. Every single one of them stated... we apologize for any troubles but we are unable to do anything for you at this time. So basically I was lied to so that I can pay more and not be able to get the experience I was told I could enjoy. For anyone looking to visit this place, make sure you can enjoy what you pay for. Thank God I can dispute this by calling my credit card. Have a blessed day.

    This place was amazing! We visited on a cruise excursion and it was a perfect day activity! Their swimming with the dolphins experience was excellent! They split everyone into small groups and each group worked with 2 dolphins and 2 trainers. We were educated on the anatomy of the dolphins and informed as to how to act and react once we were in the water with them. Once we were in the water, we had plenty of fun and interaction with the dolphins. They even had the dolphins gently push us through the water. We also saw the sea lion show (which was included in the price). The show was well done and very entertaining! Lastly, we snorkeled around their man-made reef (again, this was free with admission). The kids loved it and didn't want to get out. I can't say enough good things about this park. We had a great time there!

    This was a fun excursion. The Bird Show is good. The Sea Lions are good, the Sharks are good. And the Dolphins are good too. These animals looks to be very well maintained, they're all so healthy looking.👍

    Had a really fun time. Sea lion show was the best. Cute little man made beach inside and my kids liked the water slides, which I heard you have to pay for but we did not have to pay. Maybe because it wasn't crowded. Did not care for the lunch though.

    Ocean World Adventure Park in Dominican Republic. A must see if you have kids. The good: - Seal, dolphin, shark and bird shows through out the day. - A giant swim tank where you are allowed to swim with the fishes and coral. (pictured) - A live interactive aviary with hundreds of birds you can feed and take photos with - Pools and man made beaches for relaxing, although, we didn't use that at all. - a 3 story water slide. - very friendly staff. The not so good: - Food was very sub-par; but this is a water park with marine wildlife, not a restaurant.

    This place was awesome. The best part from our trip. I can’t wait to come back April 2023. Very clean, animals taken care of, staff there for you and are very knowledgeable. We had an awesome tour guide. Love him to pieces. Ariel Polanco very kind person and very knowledgeable of his island and ocean world. We are back home in South Carolina and missing amber cove like crazy.

    This was one of the most affordable excursions offered on our Carnival Cruise to this port. I wasn't sure what to expect, but we absolutely loved it. It is very clean, offers clean restrooms, and my tween daughter and I loved the snorkeling and the dolphin show. My teen daughter really enjoyed the innertubes on the beach and I loved that the umbrella and chairs were included in the cost. The beach area is nice, and the bus drive was air conditioned and only about 10 minutes from the ship. We did not do any of the extra activities they offer for an additional fee, but we had a wonderful few hours here and had zero complaints. Highly recommend!! We ate before we went but they do offer a meal for $18.

    I absolutely love this place! Family with kids recommended! Also, family without kids will love this place. There is so much to see and experience. Great shows with dolphins. My kids love shows with sea lions. Sharks show was great experience too. Swimming with dolphins is the best memory! Snorkeling and see a lot of different fish. There is so much more to see and enjoy!

    We paid to do the dolphin encounter. It was great! The trainer really allowed us to get up and personally pet, hug and kiss the dolphin. Either do thus or the dolphin experience, here you swim with them. Gift shop was lacking. 🤔 There are great things for kids to do, water slides, slides lagoon, trampoline and other fun activities too plus great beach around lagoon. 😀 The buffet that is offered is a real let down! Plenty to do to enjoy for the whole day.

    A different and wonderful adventure for all family members. You are going to want the "near and touch with Dolphins" package, it is not cheap, but worth the money, with this you even are going to give food (small fish alive) to dolphin 🐬 For Dominicans the entrance cost about $40 USD for adults and about $30 USD for kids below 12 years old. The package "close encounter with dolphins" (the most probably is that you are going to want to buy this optional package) have an extra price of about $60 USD for adults and $40 USD for kids and this is the most incredible experience at all in this place. The cost of the entrance includes one lunch, from 12:30 p.m to about 2 or 2:30 pm, but WARNING! they DON'T give you any water or drink for free, YOU HAVE TO BUY ANY DRINK OR WATER for an extra price inside. They have about 3 stations for drinks inside, they also have alcoholic drinks, beers, cocktail 🍹 and soda 🥤. The prices for those drinks are average, about $2 USD for a bottle of water 💦 of 12 oz and about $8 USD for a cocktail 🍸 like "piña 🍍 colada" or about $$6 USD for a beer 🍺. They also have inside an artificial beach ⛱️ (small, more friendly for kids) hamacas, seats for beach 🏖️ with umbrella 🏖️, Aquarium ♒ , seat Lion shows, swim with sharks (extra cost) and pools. The best time to arrive is 11 am and they close about 6 pm. It is recommended going in weeks days because is less crowded. Note: The Dolphin 🐬 water is salty and in the close encounter with Dolphins package you are going to be inside this water (not your head, only your body until chest) and this water look a bit dirty and smell a little bad. Finally, says that all the staff are so nice 🙂

  • 4/5 Liz R. 3 years ago on Google
    The dolphin encounter is worth it. I purchased beautiful pictures and video, it wasn't too expensive either. Playing with the dolphin was amazing. It's very nice, big space, only downside is that it needs more rides and activies. Also note that the water slides do not use rafts and only one person at a time can go down. My 8 year old autistic son wanted to go on and I could not let him because of this, since he wouldn't be able to properly go down on his own. I wish I would have known that ahead of time. Overall, it was a fun afternoon, we did everything in about 4 hours, including an hour for lunch which was included in the admission price.

    This large animal interaction park is open 6 days per week now despite Covid, with all the proper sanitation protocols. You can swim with dolphins and sea lions, and watch amazing bird and shark shows. Snorkeling also available. Great experience.

    Great place for kids. The lunch is included and staff is very professional. I have personally been to Ocean World 4 times.

    Very well maintained park and great staff. Animal shows are usual fare. Did the swim with Dolphins - warning - think two, three or even four times before doing the boogey board ride. Expect a Dolphin swimming at 20 mph + to smack the sole of your foot with its nose, to "propel' you and your boogey board. Be sure you don't have a weak knee, hip replacement, etc! After the blinding pain, you will just want to go again.

    Im 51 and Ive loved dolphins from a little girl. This week was a dream come true and they were even more amazing than I could dream. The staff here are so kind and helpful and are a true asset to this adventure. They made it super special.

    We were a party of 5 who went on a fishing trip with Mahi Mahi Tours. An excellent experience! 5 fish were landed.. exciting time when 4 fish took a line at the same time. Thanks to an experienced 1st mate, all were landed successfully. After returning to the dock, the captain fileted the fish for us... delicious!!

    This was such a fun adventure. The park has so much to do, you can swim with dolphins and sharks and even sit with sea lions. There are bird enclosures where you can walk into and feed the birds. You can swim in the pool. Snorkel. There is a restaurant w a full bar. There are multiple different packages available. The people working here were very kind and friendly. The park was so beautiful.

    We seen flamingos, went snorkeling, danced, had lunch while relaxing on the beach. Very enjoyable. We didn't do the banana boat ride but I wish we had.

    Ocean world was the highlight of my cruise. The staff was amazing! The only name i remember (and youll see why) is coca cola but he was great :) We swam with the dolphins and saw the sealion and bird shows. We also got to feed a flock of love birds! Also, side note, the bar is super cheap and really good. I cant recommend this place enough.

    It's an excellent place - I gave it 4 stars only because it is truly a family place. If my children were still small they would have loved it and the rating would be 5 stars! They have a lot of things and events to visit, like the sea lion show, dolphin show, tank snorkeling, and the gorgeous love birds. The picture is of one the friendly parrots giving me a kiss! There are lockers, changing rooms and a nice triple slide tube ride. Plenty of places for kiddies to swim and frolic, including a pool and a splash pad. They also have an excellent restaurant. Well worth the visit. But bring the kids!

    One of the best and most fun Carnival cruise ship excursions we've ever done! Swam with dolphins, sea lions, & sharks. Their bird habitat was awesome as well. Really glad we came here.

    Such a great experience! And swimming with the dolphin was so amazing. Thank you Ocean World for making a unique experience for my father when he wouldn't go into the water.

  • 5/5 Joshua T. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice experience. Family did the shallow water dolphin encounter. Kids are 9 & 10, I think they would have liked the deep water swim more. The focus seems very much photo encounter. Dolphins are incredibly trained and park is very nice. They have a great beach and water park. Food was also good. They have a buffet or al la carte menu. I was very impressed by the trainers and staff. They really outdid themselves. They were probably the most knowledgeable aquatic trainers I’ve encountered. They were great to the animals and guests. Really above and beyond.

    Fun day, staff exceptionally eager to please. Very clean and well cared for. We saw several nice shows and they even allowed guest to participate at times. A casual lunch was provided as well.

  • 5/5 Dave M. 1 year ago on Google
    We had the best time, it was excellent better than what we expected. The only thing I didn't like was that they didn't include soda or water with the buffet lunch. But I won't penalize them for that. Overall great experience will be back soon.

    Amazing property, with fun experiences and great service! Upon arrival, you get your own "Tour Guide" who escorts you during your visit. Our guy, Argenius, was great. Very personable and full of park insights. The park itself hosts various activities and includes a lovely buffet. We enjoyed the Sea Lion show, animal meet and greets, swimming with the dolphins, snorkeling in the tank, and their fun water slide/ beach area. It was absolutely fun. I recommend this for a fun full day experience in DR!

  • 2/5 Howie K. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is small. Without doing the dolphin or sea lion encounter, there is not much to do. The shows are only 15 mins. People start to set 20 mins before the show. The shark show is very boring which is only for guest to take photo with sharks. If you come with MSC cruise, the ticket / excursion does not come with buffet lunch. The buffet will be $18 per person. (The ticket normally sold with buffet lunch, but not with MSC excursion). The excursion is from 9:30-3:30, very long and after 1 there is probably nothing to do but wait at the bar or restaurant.

    It was the place I most enjoyed... i had the most fun, and my 3 kids kids did, too... we went to PR, DR & .... I recommend 1000 times... most definitely going again... music and dance right when u come out of the boat. The people, omgosh.... the most friendly humans I ever encounter from a different place... music, drinks, fun, animals, food, just amazing...

    Really great place to visit, tons to do! Only downside was we didn't have enough time for everything. Definitely wear water shoes because some of the different experiences are a short walk from each other. The Love Bird attraction was really cool.

  • 5/5 Melissa A. 7 months ago on Google
    One was very friendly. Love the dance when we was entering. I enjoy the sea lion, the dolphins and the sharks. The trainers was very awesome. The only thing I did not like is I could not get my pictures. I've been trying to email someone to get my pictures and haven't received any answer yet. Back from anyone. I read the rules and it said I only had 20 days to receive my pictures. Will love to get them really. Enjoy myself

    Best experience of our entire cruise. Did the doplin swim and let me tell you it did not disappoint! We got into the tank with the doplins and had them swim by us so we could rub their bellies and backs. We then got to "dance" with them, hug them and they gave us all kisses. The trainers also had the dolphins sing happy Birthday to my son which was awesome.

  • 4/5 John C. 3 months ago on Google New
    While this a stop on our cruise, it was indeed a quaint stop for the few hours we we're there. The dolphins pit on a delightful show. My favorite part had to be the love bird exhibit.

  • 5/5 Tonia C. 3 months ago on Google New
    What great place to go and see some wonderful shows! The performance was A+, you will have time to see all the shows plus eat and enjoy the swimming.

    Staff was super friendly and the place very clean. Clean restrooms and the grounds were super clean with nice music playing. We did the dolphin interaction and loved it.

    Wonderful experience at a stunning location. We had time there on a cruise and had the shark experience booked. It was amazing, definitely a bucket list type thing. We also saw the dolphin show, enjoyed the included lunch, and chilled on the beach. All facilities were clean and tidy and the staff were excellent!
