We arrived just at 11:00 am and a nice lady at the ticket booth highlighted the shows, in order, that we could see. First show had already started and we missed one animal demonstration (small snake) out of 10. Lunch at the restaurant was good and inexpensive. On to yhe sea lion show which was funny and educational. Pictures of a sea lion kissing you is 500 pesos and captured on your cell phone. Next show was 2 dolphins doing maneuvers, dances and flip. Fun to watch. Pictures were 600 pesos. Last show was acrobatics. We left about 2:45 pm having caught all 4 shows.

We went on a Friday and there was plenty of space. The shows are about 40 minutes apart, but don’t start until 1245, so if you don’t want to wait, come around then. There is limited seating in the dining area and extra seating outside with fans. The food is good and reasonably priced, though the drinks are expensive. It’s good to bring cold water and a fan. All the stadiums have shading but no fans so it can get hot with the crowd. The shows are amazing. Educational with enough action to keep all entertained.

It is a nice attraction yet might still be considered pricey as there are only 6 attractions - acrobatics, wild animals, dolphin, sea lion, and additional (optional with additional fee) sharks & turtles, voyager (aquarium view of fish and sharks (optional, no additional fee). All main attractions last approximately 30-45mins, but you will learn about the specific subject of attraction. Acrobatics is superb and really worth the realization for everyone about the importance of proper waste management and caring to our environment. It would be better to have more attractions to offer and more engaging tour paths.
Bruce
Nice family fun place and very clean and well cared for. Shows are good except seating is awful and uncomfortable. Concrete benches. Staff is all very polite and helpful. Does not take long to do entire place. About 4 hours and you see it all. Very hot though. Animals seem well catered for unlike zoo and other places around here.

We visited Ocean Adventure on a weekend, arriving right at 9 AM when the park opened. We were fortunate to catch the dolphins near the shallow water along the shore, which was a magical experience. The acrobatic show was the highlight of our visit—it was both thrilling and awe-inspiring! The entrance fee is ₱850 for adults and ₱650 for kids. While the basic entry provides access to the park, any animal encounters or photo ops come with an additional charge. On the downside, there wasn’t much to do outside of the dolphin and sea lion shows. The aquarium was smaller than I expected, with a limited number of fish, which was a bit underwhelming. The primary attractions are undeniably the dolphins and sea lions, and while they’re incredible, I hoped for more variety in terms of activities. I was also a bit disappointed that for the photo opportunities with the animals, guests are required to use their own cameras or phones, instead of having a photographer available. I wouldn’t mind paying a little extra if they offered this service, and perhaps even printing the photos on-site. Additionally, the food prices were quite steep, and since you're not allowed to bring your own food or drinks, you're forced to buy inside—something I wasn’t thrilled about. If you visit, I'd recommend packing your own food and eating in the car to save on costs. Despite these small setbacks, I thoroughly enjoyed the visit, especially the park's strong message of animal conservation and environmental protection. The souvenir shop was a pleasant surprise too. The prices were reasonable, and we picked up quite a few toys for the kids. All in all, I had a great time, and the experience was definitely worthwhile!
