    very touching show, well trained dolphins that are great in contact with people. given that this is one of the last places to have an animal show, I wish the kids were with us to see it too.

    (Translated by Google) The Varna Dolphinarium is located in the northern part of the Sea Garden in the city of Varna. It was opened on August 11, 1984 and has 1200 seats. The dimensions of the pool are 12 by 15 meters and a depth of 6 meters, and is filled with sea water through a special pumping system. The water is extracted from the Black Sea 150 - 160 meters from the shore and a depth of 3 - 6 meters, where it is the cleanest and is processed before reaching the pool. The dolphinarium also has a coffee shop with a transparent wall to the aquarium. There are five dolphins in the Varna Dolphinarium - 3 female and 2 male - Kimbo, Dolly and Mika (the most famous) were brought from the distant shores of Guatemala and Cuba, and Joanna, Bimbo and Flipper were born in the Varna Dolphinarium. The idea for the creation in Bulgaria of a dolphinarium on our Black Sea coast was first launched by the zoologist Nikolay Boev. In its original formulation, it referred to our southern Black Sea coast. [1] He hasn't given up on her for a decade. Even in the plans for the development of the then Ropotamo National Park, a project for its construction was prepared. [2] However, it remained unrealized. A dolphinarium was built in Varna. It is the second on the Black Sea after the one in Batumi (Georgia). (Original) Варненският делфинариум се намира в северната част на Морската градина в град Варна. Открит е на 11 август 1984 година и разполага с 1200 места. Размерите на басейна са 12 на 15 метра и дълбочина 6 метра, и се пълни с морска вода чрез специална помпена система. Водата се извлича от Черно море на 150 – 160 метра от брега и дълбочина 3 – 6 метра, където тя е най-чиста и се подлага на преработка преди да достигне до басейна. Делфинариумът разполага и с кафе-сладкарница с прозрачна стена към аквариума. Във варненския делфинариум има пет делфина – 3 женски и 2 мъжки – Кимбо, Доли и Мика (най-известния) са донесени от далечните брегове на Гватемала и Куба, а Йоана,Бимбо и Флипър са родени във Варненския делфинариум. Идеята за създаването в България на делфинариум на черноморското ни крайбрежие за пръв път е лансирана от зоолога Николай Боев. В първоначалната си формулировка тя се е отнасяла за южното ни Черноморие.[1] Цяло десетилетие той не се отказва от нея. Дори в плановете за развитието на тогавашния национален парк „Ропотамо“ бил изготвен и проект за неговото изграждане.[2] Той обаче останал нереализиран. Построен бил делфинариум във Варна. Той е вторият на Черно море след този в Батуми (Грузия).

    Lovely dolphin show. 🐬 Speech mainly in Bulgarian, but the important parts also in English, with a strong Slavic accent. It's recommended to buy the tickets online or at least one hour before. The price for a 4 person family was a bit high - approx 60 Eur. Another minus is that the lady at the ticket office wasn't nice at all. 😞 Entering in the venue could be better organized. They opened the gates 10 minutes before the start of the show and people was rushing to get inside like cattles. 🤦

    The dolphinarium itself is quite old, to my opinion the pool could be bigger for the dolphins :( The dolphins are nice and showed a few good tricks, however the trainer was busier telling outdated jokes than actually doing the tricks 👎 - the bigger part of the show was her speaking. To my opinion - not worth the price :/ I'd say zoo in the same park is a much higher value for money.

    I'm torn between enjoying the show and also being very sad that such places still exist:( The dolphins were amazing and so so smart but it's difficult to think about the training process etc. I hope the money goes towards their food and good care. The show lasted between 30 and 45 minutes. We had to wait in the queue to get tickets around 20 minutes. It looked very busy but there were plenty of places for everyone.

    The only Dolphinarium in Bulgaria. The show is about 30 minutes where you will see the dolphins play with basketball, football and bring a man in a boat safely to shore. It is worth seeing the show.

    It was a great show. A tad bit short, but they engaged with the crowd and made it more fun for everyone. I recommend this place if you're visiting Varna. It's great for kids too.

    (Translated by Google) Fun for all ages. Lack of ventilation, especially when wearing a mask. There is no login organization. Most people push like cattle not to miss their seats. A big minus is the lack of a place to buy water or something to drink. (Original) Забавно за всички възрасти. Липса на вентилация,особено когато си с маска. Няма организация за влизане. Повечето хора се блъскат като добичета да не изпуснат места за сядане. Голям минус е липса на място от където да си купиш вода или друго за пиене.

    Nice show! Children loved it! The building is in a nice park near the sea and the parking lot is far away. The park itself ir not very well maintained but has some nice hotels and restaurants. Went on a Tuesday and it was crowded.

  • 3/5 Alexandra G. 2 years ago on Google
    Be sure to get there 20-30 mins before, because the parking isn't "5 mins" away, especially if you have small kids. The show was ok, not spectacular, the nicest tricks (like jumping through hoops or jumping to hit the suspended ballons) were only done once ( if you blinck longer, you might miss them). There was a lot of talk in Bulgarian and the kids got borred at some point. The cafe with the aquarium is very small and you can't see a lot through the glass. The surroundings look bad, the playground is kinda dangerous and the whole place could use a do-over. Other than that the dolphins were very nice and we loved their tricks, although, like I said, I belive they had a lot more porential.

    Didn’t take pictures of the show as I was watching it and enjoying it unlike most people with their smartphones on video so they can watch it at home 😂 Positive: - very spacious seating area - snacks and bar/restaurant available - toilets available - wheelchair accessible (but not as easy as you would think) Negative: - No information available on the schedule (neither online nor on-site) it is obvious you don’t do a show every hour or the dolphins would be over fed and undertrained - still this is basic information - The show is 30 minutes long and some tricks are only done once , there is ALOT of talking from the presentator and ONLY in Bulgarian , therefore pricy as what you get for what you pay is not up to scratch - In general uncomfortable, it gets warm inside in the summer and the seats are hard as … Overall, is it worth the visit, yes the kids will love it and the dolphins show some amazing skill. Is is worth the pricy entry ticket, absolutely NOT

    Good show, short and sweet. 30min full of entertainment from the dolphins is quite an achievement. The sound system is quite loud and it is hard to understand the trainer presenting the show, but the dolphins did a great job. They deserve to have a full auditorium all the time.

    The Dolphinarium has some pretty cool Dolphins but I heard that the show has become shorter and it's pretty hard to hear what the dolphin instructor is saying. But the Dolphins are cute. There are 5 of them and one of them is a baby.

  • 3/5 František N. 4 years ago on Google
    The best years are over already. And I am afraid, how big basins are there for the dolphins: four, they said. But all small, by my fear? One of them for mothers and giving birth. One dolphin ended here because injured: By a surgery they fixed his nose, upper chew, so he lives here now. The taking photos of the kissing with a walrus surprised me. In all, definitely not cheap.

    (Translated by Google) The show is sad, mostly chatting and repeating dolphin names. There are few tricks, dolphins perform tricks out of sync. I've been to other delphinariums and everything was better. Dolphins tried one good thing (Original) Шоу печальное, в основном одна болтовня и повторение имён дельфинов. Трюков мало, дельфины выполняют трюки не синхронно. Я был в других делфинариях и везде было лучше. Одно хорошо дельфины старались

    (Translated by Google) Because you have to park the car 2 km from the dolphinarium, because you didn't have a pass and it was dangerous not to hit a child, and those who have a pass can't they hit a child or are they sinless because they are rich (Original) Защото трябва да паркираш автомобила на 2 километра от делфинариума, защото си нямал пропус и е било опасно да не блъснеш някое дете, а тези който имат пропуск те не могат ли да блъснат някое дете или те са безгрешни защото са богати

    (Translated by Google) A place with great potential, the dolphins are great, their numbers are not easy at all, but the show is short and the children seem to have higher expectations. The performance is priced at BGN 25. Adult, BGN 20. Child and BGN 5. For photography, look for vouchers for BGN 20 adult, 14 children and certify them before the performance. There is a pastry shop with underwater surveillance. (Original) Място с голям потенциал, делфините са страхотни, номерата им никак не са лесни, но представлението е кратко, а децата сякаш имат по-големи очаквания. Представлението е с цена 25 лв.

    I visited this place around 2 years ago. The "show" was around 20min. The price was too high comparing to other bulgarian places and comparing to what you get for this money. If you plan visiting the cafe, you need to pay an extra fee. For kids it may be interesting if you have no other options.

    Dolphinarium is small .There are 4 adult dolphins and a baby.Show takes 30 minThere are VIP seats ,others first cone first take.A little pool for dolphins,so its a little bit too anoying.We were in Lithuania in dolphinarium so here it is 3 out ot 5 if in Klaipėda is 5. But its Bulgaria,maybe after 10 years it will be better :))Cafferetia is just for short stop for a drink.There is soft drinks and coctails.Some snacks as nuts ,3 kinds af sandwiges,3 kinds of cakes.Ice cream.If you want to site inside and and look at the dolfin while dringing your order ,you have to pay extra 1,5 lv for a person.Kids up to 7 years for free.We tried to sit outside but waited 15 minutes and nobody came to take our order,so mooved inside.

    (Translated by Google) Great place for young and old. Definitely needs repair. I think that this is, if not the biggest, then one of the biggest attractions in Varna and it should be maintained. My mother went to the show 20 years ago and the dolphinarium was in the same condition. Dolphins deserve more. The fee is not high BGN 15 per adult. I think that if there is no money for the mayor to allocate, the price of the entrance can be raised and things can improve. Another remark is the rude attitude of the staff towards the clients. We were probably 30 people in the hall, two of whom were taken out in front of the dolphins. The leading woman behaved very rudely, as if we were guilty of getting us out in front and hindering her. Not to mention that you couldn't hear or understand what he was saying from the stands. The trainers did a very good job. Dolphins are wonderful. (Original) Страхотно място за малки и големи. Определено е нужен ремонт. Смятам, че това е, ако не най-голямата, то една от най-големите атракции на Варна и от това следва да се поддържа. Майка ми преди 20 години е ходила на шоуто и делфинариумът е бил в същото състояние. Делфините заслужават повече. Таксата не е висока 15 лв за възрастен. Смятам, че ако няма пари, които кметът да отпусне, може да се вдигне цената на входа и да се подобрят нещата. Друга забележка- неучтиво държание на персонала към клиентите. Бяхме 30 човека сигурно в залата, от които изкараха двама отпред при делфините. Жената водеща се държеше много грубо, все едно сме виновни, че ни е изкарала отпред и и пречим. Да не говорим, че от трибуните изобщо не се чуваше и рзбираше какво говори. Дресьорите много добре са си свършили работата. Делфините са прекрасни.

    (Translated by Google) It is worth visiting with children. This is one of our unique attractions for the country. The price is reasonable, since yesterday I was only repulsed by the lack of adequate parking space. / The weather was not good, and we had to park over 700 m in the rain, with a 2-year-old child in a parking lot, which was abandoned with extremely inadequate pavement of white rubble, which soiled us and our car. in case of rain, and the fences of the parking lot are under any criticism ... / I consider this a negative. The place is arranged and clean. For those who missed the show 12-12: 30 the coffee in the basement of the pool offers visibility to the dolphins and their home. (Original) Струва си да се посети с деца.Това е една от уникалните ни за страната атракции.Цената е приемлива, от вчера единствено ме отблъсна липсата на адекватно близо място за паркиране. /Времето не бе хубаво, а ни се наложи да паркираме на над 700 м в дъжда , с дете на 2 години на паркинг, който е изоставен с изключително неадекватна настилка от бял трошляк, която изцапа и нас и автомобилът ни.Свен това в хлъзгава при дъжд, а огражденията на паркинга са под всякаква критика... / Считам това за негатив.

    (Translated by Google) Within 4 years we visit the dolphinarium for the second time. Both times the toilets were disgusting. Otherwise the staff is kind and keeps the masks. This time on one dolphin his skin looked like he had some disease. (Original) В рамките на 4години посещаваме делфинариума за втори път.И двата пъти тоалетните бяха отвратителни.Иначе персоналът е любезен и държат на маските.Този път на единия делфин кожата му изглеждаше като да има някакво заболяване.

    (Translated by Google) The space for dolphins is small. The show is only 12pm and 3pm. We arrived late around 4 pm - closed. Next door is a cafe overlooking the pool with dolphins. (At least something) I don't understand why it's not swimming with dolphins. Surely you could earn money to expand the pool. (Original) Prostor pro delfíny je malý. Show je jen 12h a 15h. Přišli jsme pozdě kolem 16h - zavřeno. Vedle je kavárna s výhledem do bazénu s delfíny. (Alespoň něco) Nechápu proč není koupání s delfíny. Určitě by se tak dalo vydělat na rozšíření bazénu.

    (Translated by Google) In short - the dolphinarium and its performance are not worth attention. My family was just disappointed 😞😞😞 We had only been to the dolphinarium (Lviv region, Truskavets) before, but this is a comparison. Dear organizers and managers of the dolphinarium in Varna - do not be ashamed !!! Go and see how the performances take place in other dolphinariums and what is called a dolphinarium in general. And dear tourists, I advise you not to spend your time and money on this place. They paid an additional 5 levs for the photo. about 2.5 euros and with dolphins photos were not allowed to take. (Original) Якщо коротко - то дельфінарій і його вистава не варті уваги. Моя сім'я просто розчарувались😞😞😞 Ми були лише раз до цього у дельфінарій ( Львівська обл., Трускавець), але це недопорівняння. Дорогі організатори і керуючі дельфінарієм у Варні - не позортесь!!! Зїздіть і подивіться як відбуваються вистави у інших дильфінаріях і що називають дильфінарій взагалі. А Вам дорогі туристи раджу не витрачати свій час і гроші на це місце. За фото оплатили додатково 5 лев. приблизно 2.5 євро і з дельфінами фото недозволили зробити.

    (Translated by Google) - parking is 2 km away ready from the dolphinarium - it's raining in the dolphinarium (actually the water was flowing from the ceiling on the chairs in the hall) A bit expensive but once worth seeing a show with well trained dolphins Totally beautiful! (Original) - parcarea este la 2 km distanta gata de delfinariu - plouă în delfinariu (efectiv curgea apa din tavan pe scaune În sala) Cam scump dar o dată merita sa vezi un show cu delfini bine instruiți Per total frumos !

    I don't have much impressions from the Dolphinarium itself, but the show with dolphins was very cool. It was organized well and the dolphins' tricks were entertaining. The only think I didn't like was the show's duration, about 30 minutes, but with lots of pauses.

  • 5/5 Andy G. 3 years ago on Google
    Very interesting show. You can see that they love dolphins. They are treated well

  • 4/5 Marius B. 3 years ago on Google
    Interesting dolphins show(1h). It's a bit expensive, 25 leva/adult; 20 leva/children, that mean, it's a West european price for an Eastern European country. Kinda worthy to go if you haven't seen an dolphin show.

  • 5/5 Lazar L. 3 years ago on Google
    Great show about 30 minutes. Dolphins look happy. There was a baby dolphin as well.

    Wonderful for kids. You can't help but think if this is the best place for these super intelligent creatures - but the show was good and interactive with the audience. My 10 month old was super interested for the whole 30 minutes and I thought that was an impossible feat! The show was in Bulgarian and English which was a good surprise seeing as I don't speak the Bulgarian lingo.

  • 5/5 Borislav B. 2 years ago on Google
    The dolphins have an attitude. I found it hilarious when one of the dolphins didn't get his treat and only after he got it he went and did what he was supposed to do. I had a great time and hope you do two.

  • 1/5 Blaze B. 2 years ago on Google
    DO NOT PURCHASE ONLINE TO TAKE PHOTOS!!! ANYONE can use his own camera or mobile phone without being checked or charged! We thought that the 2 photos which we paid for are with the dolphins with our children! That is not the case, so a total waste of money! The show is only 30min long! 3 years ago used to be much better. They spend now more time telling people to wear their mask instead on focusing on information about the animals! NeVer again sadly not a great experience! And the money for the photos they would not refund at the ticket office!

  • 4/5 I. A. 2 years ago on Google
    We visited the dolphinarium in August. It's interesting to see, although I think the ticket prices were higher than I expected. We paid extra to be able to take pictures, but inside it turned out that everyone could take pictures ... Still, it is worth taking your children to see the dolphin show.

    This place has already had the best time. Comments from keeper lady were hard to understand due to very bad micro set up,tricks were not repeated,except footbal performance,which was really nice. Swimming with doplhins due to covid restrictions not allowed.time was quickly off but fine to be there

  • 3/5 Raoul H. 1 year ago on Google
    The Kids loved it, but the location is not well maintained and the show was a bit boring, also we not understand anything, the seats are dirthy. The coffee behind is nice and you can see the dephims closeup for the price of a coffee.

  • 5/5 Abilash M S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very entertaining. Must visit in Varna. The dolphins put on a amazing show. :)

  • 4/5 Magda P. 1 year ago on Google
    I saw the show in February and there were mostly locals, so it was in Bulgarian, but it didn’t matter, cause we came to see the dolphins and we did. It lasted about 20 to 30 min, I guess. I hope the dolphins are happy there, because it was hard to tell.

  • 5/5 Spencer H. 1 year ago on Google
    Enjoyable show, incredibly cheap 40 lev for two adults which translates to about £15-£18 , we visited off season in April and during that time shows were at 12pm only. It was quite busy, but plenty I’d seats the show lasted about 45 minutes. Certainly in April nobody spoke English (why should they) but given thus be wary, you might not be able to ask more complex questions and most questions we asked received a yes or no answer only. The dolphins see,ed to be living a good life, the tricks were very good.

  • 4/5 Ekaterina M. 1 year ago on Google
    Super suitable for kids up to 7 years of age. They love it. We couldn't hear the host of the show ,but still the show was nice. No English in the programmer. Do try to volunteer in the programme , it is fun.

  • 5/5 Dobromir A. 4 months ago on Google
    Really enjoyed the dolphin show. It is a must visit place if you have small kids. Buy tickets in advance to avoid the hustle on site. You can download them on your phone so no need to print them. You should arrive at least 20 mm Ute's before the show to make sure you get a central spot.

  • 5/5 Vitruvian Vision (. 6 months ago on Google
    I only visited the dolphinarium's coffee shop, while waiting on a friend. Not certain if it is open in low season. I am not sure how I would feel about the program itself, but the cafe is lovely. Multiple, joyful dolphins came by the windows, and I had a great time drinking my ice cream shake, and reading.

  • 2/5 Noel N. 9 months ago on Google
    Great place, but took 1 star for slow terrace service and took 1 star for no parking spots near dolphinarium (10+ min. walking nearest spots). Bit pricey also for 30 min. show (30 leva per person, 42 for VIP). Took one more star down for disgusting toilets.

  • 5/5 Ronaldina R. 4 months ago on Google
    Very nice and entertaining show, the dolphins are soooo sweet. For those visiting the cafe to watch the dolphins under water, it would be good if they would also buy something, in the end this is how we can all contribute to keep the dolphinarium open.

  • 4/5 Ivan T. 8 months ago on Google
    Pool needs renovation and there should be more than two ticket spots, que was long. It's posible to by tickets with credit cards and place has nice café with glass wall so you can see dolphins while drinking coffe.

    The staff is super friendly, the show entertaining and the kids loved it!
