We visited the dolphinarium in 2021 and had very mixed impressions (even after 4 years). On the plus side, dolphins are always positive emotions and they are incomparable! Everything else from the "sediment remains" category: the show is average (for example, if you compare it with the show at the dolphinarium in Anapa (the highest class!!), then the dolphinarium in Varadero is just a "commercial break", very mediocre tricks and numbers). Keeping animals causes tears - the water is muddy, dirty (and smelly), and the pools are too small for such active animals. There are no amenities: the stands are concrete steps, uncovered, and there are non-drying puddles on the slippery floor along the edge of the pool. It's also depressing that there's just a widespread desire to get hot on tourists (I don't think it's just Russians): there is one price in pesos at the entrance, 3 times more in dollars, we paid for the show and for swimming with dolphins, after the show we went to separate pools for individual bathing, but they strictly forbade filming me on our camera, only a dolphinarium photographer can take pictures for 55 bucks (I was very upset because my my husband is a good photographer, and FOR WHAT?), I was even ready to give up swimming, but the dream of talking to dolphins outweighed it. These 15 minutes of communication with dolphins made me forget about dirty water and extortion of money. The photos, as expected, were very mediocre (+ half of the photos are not even mine, but of tourists with whom I was in a group). But I will never go to this dolphinarium a second time, and I also do not advise those who have something to compare (who have been to any other dolphinarium).

Swimming with dolphins: even at the entrance, they try to put on shoes from 10 to 50 dollars on top. To sell a show that you didn't initially need, you came for a swim. Okay, we left 10 on top, just to get behind. Next, swimming with dolphins - they recruit as many people as possible and load them into a dirty puddle with garbage and jellyfish. The girl was kicked so hard by a jellyfish that she refused to swim at all. Further whiplash - any step you take is for a fee. You can't take pictures of your own child - only with their camera for a fee. It's some kind of madhouse.

The cost is $ 80 (show + bathing) or $ 50 only for the show. We were there before lunch: a show at 11.00, then a swim at 11.30, after lunch like a 15.30 show (but this is not accurate). Dolphins are great fellows! It's interesting to watch the show, but swimming with them, riding them is just super, you don't think about the quality of the water at this moment. Photos + videos are dumped on the phone for $ 55, most are slag, but there are also funny and funny photos, the video for sending to a family group is quite decent. The coach's commands are quite understandable in Russian. The highlight of swimming is when two dolphins push by the feet and toss over the water, cool!
