Marineland Shares Its History Through an Exhibition

Marineland Dolphin Adventure opened as Marine Studies in June 1938. Over 30,000 guests visited on opening day, and the park quickly became known as the world’s first oceanarium. Marineland’s three founders were involved in the motion-picture industry, and it became a premier facility for shooting underwater footage. Since that time, marine conservation and educational outreach have been important hallmarks of the non-profit organization’s mission.

Today, Marineland is part of The Dolphin Company and continues to be a center of education and family fun that showcases marine life through one-of a-kind interactive experiences. Guests from over the world visit Marineland annually to see and swim with dolphins, to learn about marine ecology, and to enjoy The Experience of a Lifetime.

We are excited to announce that this month, Marineland will open a historic exhibit at The Oldest House in downtown St. Augustine, Florida, for the community to be able to learn about the facility and marine animals.
