Legal experience!
The park is very legal, clean and organized, however, there are many charges apart and the value of the PLUS ticket does not pay. The buffet left a bit to be desired for me, however, it is worth going to the park and experience with dolphins, as well as other activities. The shows are a little boring, as they only refer to the local folklore, but they are all very polite and helpful.
