Me and my mum went here on Thursday 24th May 2012 and we swam with Dolphins. It was a great day out and the Dolphin Emotions was worth it! We bought a DVD and an album of the interaction and it was most definitely worth it. If you are going to go to Zoomarine I would definitely recommend you to... More

A great excursion for the family. Better to buy tickets at ticket booths, not through hol reps, much cheaper. More

This is a great place to spend a sunny day. To get most enjoyment borrow a child or two. The shows are excellent for both adults and children but maximise the enjoyment with a child preferably at least 6 years. Be prepared to spend the full day day as there are a range of entertainments and of course a beach.FOOD... More

Visited zoo marine in October with my 13 year old daughter whilst on holiday in alvor. We booked the trip through our travel agent, first choice. It cost €60 for both of us including coach direct from the hotel and drop off back to hotel. The sea lion and dolphin shows were really entertaining and my daughter fell in love... More

We visited Zoomarine with the family in April 2012. The main highlights are the dolphins and sea lions but they also have lots of birds to see. The pool area was closed off as the weather was not great but looked a really good area for kids. They also have a few rides for the family to go on including... More

The shows were fab, really entertaining for the little ones and and adults too. They have some lovely fairground attractions and 2 huge swimming pools. My only gripe is the costs of things in the park - €3 to hire a sun lounger and the restaurants are crazy prices! Would bring our own food in a cooler bag next time. More

Went Zoo Marine during our trip to the Algarve and I would highly recommend our kids are 3 and 1 and they loved it, our eldest even had his photo taken with a Dolphin. All the attraction once you are there are free and they do shows twice throughout the day, Tropical Birds, Seals and Sealions, Birds of Prey and... More

Don't really know why we went - probably hoped it would be better than we thought. Definitely not enough space for any of the marine animals. Crocodiles' area disgusting. Way too little space for sharks. Turtles' enclosure green with slime. Heartbreaking. Will never go there again. The only thing that we enjoyed was the salad and fries. More

the shows were great (i hope the bird of prey got back safely after it flew away during the display we watched). got to feed the stingrays which was a perfect end to the day. well worth the money. More
