There are 6 bottlenose dolphins and each has a name. The names of the dolphins are Kyushu, Jerry, Tetka, Fekla, Kai, and Elvis. Apart from the Dolphins, you get to see the rare fur seals as well. This is a 45 mins show. The seating arrangement has a VIP section in the center and the regular section surrounding it in an arc. The advantage of taking a seat in the VIP section is that you’ll be sitting right opposite the pool and no better place is there to watch this.

If not at least sit close to the VIP seats in the regular section to get better views.

Mirror Maze
mirror maze Duba
Kids are amazed by the illusionary wall mirrors
Would you like to challenge yourself with a fun maze? Then this is for you. Once you are in there, it’s seriously tough to figure out the exit or the direction to the way out. This is because of the disconcerting labyrinth made of huge wall-sized mirrors. This would be a perfect activity for a family vacation, especially if there are kids.
Show timings
This activity doesn’t have a particular timing. It’s open the whole day, So you can experience this whenever you want. But do not miss out!
Trampoline
Eligibility for Trampoline
Age: 7+.
Maximum of 250 kgs allowed in one trampoline
One person to bounce on one trampoline
To sum up the main points
This is one such place where people of all ages can have fun-time and locate in such a way that it takes just a 10 min drive from the city center. You get to interact with amazing creatures, you sure can click some pics for your Instagram posts. Apart from the major attraction of the dolphin show, it has additional facilities like a mirror maze, trampoline park, and 5D/7D cinema making it a non-monotonous experience. Given all that, this has a limited seat capacity, which makes it difficult to get a good seat on a busy day. If you are unable to find a good seating position for a show, try booking that show on a different slot. Since people are spending a day’s time with their family, food becomes a major concern here. There is only one restaurant on the premise, which can host 150 people at once. If you can manage these things then this will be a splendid time spent with your family. Planning a Dubai vacation?
