There were no dolphins when we got there, we were informed on the gate which was a shame as it’s a huge part of the marina which cuts the day much shorter however you still have to pay the same price for the park. Overall a good afternoon out.”

We used the bus on both days - first we went around all Benalmadena and on the second we got out beside ‚Tivoli world’ and went up the mountain on cable car. Worth the price!even more when gives you opportunity to use it for something else/drop offs beside your next day booking :) staff really nice! Easy to use. We defo do recommend it”
