I've been to quite a few animal parks on my travels, and Marineland in Antibes near Nice is one of the coolest!
A beautiful park near the coast of the french rivera, and a park that besides the Marineland itself also includes four smaller parks; AQUA-SPLASH, LA PETITE FERME, LA JUNGLE DES PAPILLONS and ADVENTURE GOLF.
The Marineland is a oceanic park where you get to see both killer whales, dolhins and sealions perform amazing shows in big beautiful water stadiums!
You'll also get the chance to see Sharks and other sea-animals here, but nothing beats the shows!
When I went there in the month of July 2002, there weren't any queue-problems to get in, and there are good parking facilities.
Adultes are charged (2002-prices) 24 Euros to enter the Marineland, while kids go for 16 Euros.
But then you can combine the different parks into a pack and save some money.
I tried the Adventure Golf also for only 1 Euro in top of the Marineland price, and it was worth it. You'll get to choose from 3 different and very beautiful 18 hole tracks!
