About Marineland of Florida

Marineland opened in 1938 south of St. Augustine as an oceanarium built to film sea life, and scenes from Creature from the Black Lagoon were shot here. Today it is a nonprofit dolphin center owned by the Georgia Aquarium since 2011. General admission is $20.25 and covers daily talks, feeds, tours and a training demonstration, each about 15 to 25 minutes, plus views of the dolphin swim programs, which cost extra. It opens Wednesday to Sunday and the last ticket is sold at 2 pm.
