This huge eco-theme park is worth a day out for families, though don’t go expecting western-style water chutes and thrill rides.
There’s a lovely beach area, with a sheltered bay for swimming, a small snorkelling area, some enclosures with local wildlife and even some Mayan ruins. Look out for the swining rope bridge over the jaguar enclosure.
One highlight is the chance to swim with sting rays or dolphins – and whilst it’s never nice to see dolphins in captivity, they delight children and adults alike, and help to engender a passion for marine conservation.
