Why to visit Istanbul Dolphinarium

The Istanbul Dolphinarium, which is located on the Golden Horn, is a must-see for anybody visiting Turkey. It allows you the opportunity to watch the dolphins play and put on a variety of shows in the pools. Not only that, but visitors are permitted to swim with the dolphins! All of this and more can be found in six pools, as well as a large pool. It can accommodate up to 1000 people in total. Specific exhibits are organised that draw tourists from all across the country.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for everyone visiting Istanbul. In Istanbul, this is the city's largest indoor dolphin park. It's a great spot to take your family, especially if you have children. It is impossible to ignore seeing dolphins perform their antiques at such close proximity. You can see dolphins, seals, whales, and walruses all in one place! 

The shows are only an hour long, but they are packed with fun! The shows are available at 12 p.m., 2 p.m., and 5 p.m. on weekends. Four dolphins, four seals, two white whales, and two walruses perform in each of these one-hour shows. In addition, children over the age of ten have the opportunity to swim with the dolphins in one of the six pools. This 10-minute event, however, requires a reservation in advance. For the visiting children, further underwater swimming adventures and scuba diving lessons are available.

Special Tip

The ticket price for adults is expected to be 35 TL, while the ticket price for children is expected to be 20 TL. There are shower rooms for the youngsters to use after the presentation and the swimming and scuba diving sessions. The Istanbul Dolphinarium remains open on all days of the week except for Mondays.
