The Dolphinarium — Attraction in Klaipėda

Dolphin show were amazing and we all lived it. I advise to book the tickets in advance as they might be gone if visiting in summer. The actual sea museum annoyed us. We had a baby in a pram, and the lifts are positioned in the way that meant we always had to go against the flow of the crowd and then turn around and come back to the same elevator to go to another level. Only to face the same issue again. We ended up seeing the exposition twice, and itwouldn't have been the worst thing on a slow day, but it was crazy busy. It was not easy to understand how the flow worked either due to lack of signage. The last stop of the tour was a shop but there was no lift to get there and we had to take the stairs, to only later realise that there was an enty point from the outside also. Once outside, we were looking around, and the toddler got told off for stepping on a grass in the middle of the courtyard, yet we could not see a sign prohibiting stepping on. I mean, all in all, great half a day. Kids loved to see the dolphins and mini exposition of ships and old houses on the way there ( leave yourself a good 30-40 minutes to do it). However, the disregard to pram and disabled access location was obvious. The main courtyard as well as other exposition were paved in cobbles making access difficult. I would come and see the dolphin show again, not too sure about the museum because of the...

An unforgettable experience. Dolphins have been my favorite animal since I can remember, and this dolphinarium gave me the chance to finally interact with them in an individual experience with them.

So as we were about to get into the aquarium, we noticed that the young man checking the ticket had good English, so we used the chance to ask about the individual experience with the dolphins mentioned in their website. He called the manager, and despite being a last minute request, the manager who seemed really friendly, offered us some time, even though it had to be shorter as the trainers have tight schedules. They guided us to the place and one of the trainers explained us in good English some things about the dolphins and the dolphinarium. On top of that, when I was accidentally overcharged, the manager herself came to us, apologized numerous times and quickly fixed the problem. Oh, and she gave me a little gift for the inconvenience.

After that we wanted to go to the show as well and both the dolphins and sea lions show were great. They were fun and had some original tricks.

Thank you to the people who had the patience to help us and make it possible 🙂 wish I could spend time with dolphins every day like trainers do...

I highly recommend visiting and supporting...

It's a nice show. Dolphins, sea lions, and video projections about sea world and ecology. Story is told in Lithuanian language, but there are clearly seen subtitles in English and Russian languages. In a lobby, there is a small canteen. Food is not superb, a little overpriced, not drastically.

Last month's sunday is free but you have to reserve your place in a show.

There's a safe place to leave your children's bikes or trolleys.

Please plan a full day in this area. You can go to Sea Museum for an additional ticket. But also can go to walk around in a beach and forest. Also, it's nice to go to "sea gates" to observe big ships coming or leaving Klaipeda's port.

Also, be aware of the ferry timetable because it varies on season.

Also you can go to the peninsula with different ferry in different spot of the...
