What Our Guests Have To Say

 "I wanted to quickly “Thank You” for a most wonderful experience at Marineland.  Like I mentioned to some folks yesterday, we went “zip lining” in Honduras, “cave tubing” in Belize, “sunning” on the Corona island outside Cozumel, and “exploring” the Mayan Ruins in Cosa Maya; yet, the most thrilling adventure by far for our whole family was the “dolphin experience.”  It was fun, educational, and something that we will always remember…and we now have the CD to prove it.  We can’t wait to take our granddaughters one day and thanks again for making this visit possible." ~George

“I had the great pleasure of swimming with the dolphins. Our trainer was absolutely wonderful and full of energy. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Everyone made us feel welcome and provided us with a wealth of information about these beautiful creatures. Thank you, Marineland crew!!!”  ~Elise 

“We found Marineland last week on our way to Disney and had a great time. I think my wife enjoyed the dolphins more than Mickey! Can't wait to come back.” ~Todd

"My family and I live in Orlando, Florida. My youngest son wanted to swim with the dolphins. My husband thought of Marineland first. Both my husband and myself had been there years ago when we were both kids ourselves and thought for sure he would love it. And boy did he!! The two girls that greeted us were so friendly and made us feel right at home. They told us to head on back to where the dolphins were, and we did. When we got back there the place was clean and the staff were also very friendly and answered a few questions for the kids. Caleb came next to get Carson and he took us all back and really gave us a great tour. He was just full of great information and was really a very friendly guy. We all thought he was perfect to give my 10 and 12 year old tours because they thought he was really cool. When it was time for Carson to go, the trainer that was with him really let him do so much that he had a wonderful time and wants to do it again soon. So we will be back again and again I'm sure. You have a wonderful staff and made this the best experience  for all of us. Thank you so much..." ~Laura

"I wanted to thank you and your staff for a WONDERFUL experience with the dolphins.  It was amazingly great.  My sister had the time of her life and I wanted to thank you again.  The two staff members were both GREAT - and so were the dolphins - Roxy & Alvin.  Thank them for me and my family.  We really had an awesome time.  Your facility is extremely accommodating and clean & the staff is friendly and fun.  Thank you again." ~Kathleen

“We had such a blast. You guys made our trip to Florida awesome.....Ya'll did everything we could have imagined. Thanks, we are still reeling from our program... “  ~Leanne

“I can’t thank you enough for the wonderful time my family had at Marineland last week. You have created an incredible atmosphere and the improvements have made it a top-notch facility. I also want to compliment you on ALL of your employees. From the gift shop to the animal trainers everyone was very courteous and genuinely seemed like they enjoyed working at Marineland. “ ~Jim

“I just wanted to let you know how much my 13-year-old daughter enjoyed "The Quest" this past Friday.  I think she is still smiling!  The interns and staff at Marineland were terrific, and along with the dolphins, gave her a great experience.  Thanks again for giving my daughter a great experience that she will remember forever.  . . . We'll be back!” ~Trey

“I just wanted to thank you for arranging such a great experience for my family.  We all had a great time and the kids are now very excited to take their paintings to school to show them off.  You went above and beyond to make this a great day.  Thanks!"

“I really wanted to compliment you on your staff.  Everyone we met went out of their way to be helpful and friendly.  I know it's every facility's goal to have great customer service, but you guys have really achieved it.  Cathy, from guest relations really engaged the kids, complementing them on their paintings and telling them all about the dolphins.  Aquarist Dan spent a lot of time telling the kids all about the tank in the gift shop and answering about a million of their questions.  And, all the trainers we met were super friendly and helpful, really engaging the kids and making sure that we all had a special time.  Don't know how you keep your staff so happy, but whatever you are doing is sure working.” ~Kathy

"In June my family visited Marineland.  IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!  Swimming with the Dolphins was an experience we won't soon forget.  The facility is amazing!  I have not been there since I was a child and visited in the original Marineland with my parents and brother." ~Cheri

"This year my son and I had the pleasant opportunity of being guests in a dolphin encounter at the Center. Our experience was exceptional in all regards. We salute you for helping establish such a splendid facility and nurture exceptional operational standards. During the two hours we were there, I sensed your staff embodied a unique team spirit and more importantly, projected an attitude of ownership, as if each of them represented management and felt personally responsible  to uphold the quality reputation you have asserted in your industry. I was so moved by their professionalism and gracious mannerisms. Best wishes to all of you." ~Dave

"On July 10th I took three of my grandchildren and my daughter to swim with the Dolphins.  We had a WONDERFUL TIME !!!!!  Everyone is so nice at the facility, from the snack bar outside to the trainers, really, really friendly folks that made our visit so enjoyable.  I can't thank you enough for the most wonderful experience had by all." ~ The Steinacher family from Melbourne, Florida

"Just got home from my amazing day! The trainers were awesome and everyone at Marineland was so helpful and knowledgeable! Been in St Augustine for 16 years and finally went to swim with the dolphins. Don't know why I waited so long! I will definitely return soon!" ~ Holly

"I had a great time on the ninth being a trainer for a day!" ~ Kaitlyn

"Marineland is fabulous! Thank you so much for having me. This is definitely an adventure everyone should experience at least once." ~Laura, Flagler County Chamber of Commerce & Affiliates (Read Laura's Blog!)

"My boys and I have already enjoyed our first vacation this summer. Last weekend, we piled family and friends into the mini van and drove to St. Augustine and I have to tell you, we loved our visit to the oldest city in the U.S.One of our favorite places was Marineland. It’s right on the Atlantic and the views were stunning – and having a dolphin encounter was pretty darn amazing too. This place is loaded with history all on its own. It was built in 1938!" ~ Jill, VisitFlorida.com (Read Jill's Blog! See Jill's Video!)
