Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park Tours and Tickets

The oceanside, open-air Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park brings the best in sea to Florida's Panhandle, with educational dolphin and sea lion shows, regular trainer chats and information sessions, and, of course, an abundance of fascinating marine life, from seahorses, coral, octopus, and reef fish to moray eels, small-clawed otters, penguins, alligators, and more. Opened in 1955, the aquatic animal park retains its old-school charm and architecture, distinguishing it from like attractions. Most of the u-shaped park's tanks are open to the elements and visitors can look down into enclosures or peer through glass walls at dolphins and sea lions and the rest of the aquatic residences.

While the park is small enough to navigate in less than half a day, visitors can add upgraded experiences or stick around to catch a trainer-led show at the Dolphin Pavilion or Shoreline Theater spotlighting the animals' quick thinking and ability to learn.
