Bring a change of clothes if you plan on sitting in the front rows of the dolphin or sea lion shows to avoid getting soaked by water splashes.
Check the daily show schedule at the entrance board immediately upon arrival to coordinate your route through the park.
Apply high-SPF sunscreen as most show arenas and walkways are outdoors with limited natural shade.
Avoid visiting on weekends and national public holidays when the park reaches maximum capacity and show lines become significantly long.
Maintain silence during animal performances to avoid distracting the trainers and creatures; strictly follow the 'no flash photography' rule during indoor shows.
