We had a fantastic time at the show. The trainers and animals put on a truly spectacular performance. The dolphins' flips and jumps were incredible, and the seals did some very funny tricks. My children were completely captivated and haven't stopped talking about it! It was a well-organized experience, and seeing the pure joy on my kids' faces made it all worthwhile. A must-see attraction in Dubai for an unforgettable memory.

Weekdays vs. weekends: Visit Monday to Friday smaller crowds, easier parking at Creek Park, and better seating—especially for morning shows. Weekends get busy after 2pm, so book early and arrive 30 minutes before the show.

Peak season vs. low season: From November to March (peak season), the Dolphinarium sees more visitors due to the pleasant weather. It’s still a great time to visit, but booking in advance is recommended. During the hotter months from April to October (low season), crowds are smaller, and since it’s indoors and air-conditioned, it’s a great spot to escape the heat.
