Marineland Florida was one of the
first St Augustine Attractions to open
and has remained one of the best places
to visit in the city if you love
animals, especially dolphins! After
opening in 1939, Marineland Florida was
billed as an “Oceanarium”; a place where
tourists could go watch live ocean
animals swim and frolic in the sea. Today it is much the same as it was in
the early days, only today Marineland
Florida has been completely renovated
and its former circular 400,000 gallon
aquarium and rectangular 450,000 gallon
aquarium were demolished. In its early
days Marineland Florida fascinated
tourists with dolphin shows and plenty
to see through the Oceanarium,
however it generates even more
excitement as they offer a “swim with
the dolphins” experience and multiple
other special educational programs.

At Marineland FL visitors can create
memories that will last a lifetime and
moments that many dream about. Featuring
a 1.3 million gallon state of the art
series of dolphin habitats, the
Marineland Dolphin Conservation Center
invites guests to get up close and
personal with dolphins and experience
all that these amazing creatures have to
offer.
A general admission ticket allows
visitors to view the dolphins through 6
by 10 foot windows as they swim and play
and interact with other guests; however
other thrilling programs are offered.
Swimming with the dolphins is the
ultimate experience, and other programs
like the Dolphin & Dog Training Seminar,
Discover Dolphins, and Touch & Feed
experiences are offered at additional
prices.
Since reopening with renovated
facilities in 2006, the Marineland
Dolphin Conservation Center has become
one of the best kept secrets in the Old
City. Few realize that you can REALLY
swim with the dolphins here and the
hands on, up close encounters you can
have with the dolphins is an opportunity
you will not get anywhere else. Also,
the center is available as a ceremonial
site for St. Augustine Weddings, and
couples who wed here love having the
delightful dolphins as a part of their
special day. Adjacent to the Marineland
Dolphin Conservation Center is the
University of Florida’s Whitney Marine
Lab which operates to research and study
marine animals. Marineland FL is open
daily from 8:30 to 4:30 except for
Thanksgiving, November 26th, and
Christmas Day.
