The aquarium is ok if you have small children, but it is not very impressive or organized. You can see beautiful marine animals and there is a short and simple dolphin show.
You have to pay extra to swim with the dolphins. In our case we paid the highest fare to swim and be pulled by the dolphins but we were so unlucky that when we where there a Colombian vallenato celebrity arrived and they assigned two dolphins to him and his wife and instead left the 5 kids in our group with just one dolphin, so the experience was very short (vs what you pay).
In addition family members are positioned in a way that you can’t take good pictures of the dolphin experience so you have to buy...
Read moreTítulo: Una experiencia agridulce en el Acuario del Rodadero El Acuario y Museo del Mar del Rodadero tiene un potencial enorme. La exposición de peces y el show de delfines son, sin duda, los puntos más fuertes y atractivos. Además, el museo es interesante y la ubicación e instalaciones son bastante buenas. Sin embargo, hay un factor que arruina por completo la experiencia: el servicio al cliente. A pesar de que la entrada y los servicios son costosos, el trato por parte del personal es deficiente y realmente malo. Parecen estar haciendo un favor en lugar de brindar un servicio. La falta de cortesía es notable en la mayoría del personal. Esto, sumado al desorden y a la cantidad masiva de gente que permiten ingresar, convierte la visita en una experiencia caótica y frustrante. En resumen, aunque las exhibiciones son de calidad, la pésima atención y el desorden hacen que sea una experiencia que no recomiendo.
Title: A Disappointing Experience at the Rodadero Aquarium The Rodadero Aquarium and Sea Museum has immense potential. The fish exhibition and the dolphin show are undoubtedly the main highlights. The museum is also quite interesting, and the location and facilities are good. However, one major factor completely ruins the experience: the customer service. Despite the high cost of admission and services, the staff's attitude is poor and truly disappointing. They act as if they are doing you a favor instead of providing a service. The lack of courtesy is evident in most of the staff. This, combined with the disorganization and the massive number of people allowed inside, turns the visit into a chaotic and frustrating experience. In conclusion, while the exhibitions themselves are high-quality, the terrible customer service and the lack of order make this an experience I would...
Read moreThis place is a MUST visit in Santa Marta. Great way to spend a nice day. Takes some 10 minutes on one of the boats from Chuchu Bar.
Many activities are available onsite. The same boats that take you there will move you around playa blanca and inka inka beach... or you can beam yourself riding a long canopy from the aquarium.
There are several fish species, huge turtles of all ages, sharks, trained dolphins and an indigenous museum full of artifacts to check out. The dolphin show was very educative, but the coolest part was being able to...
