List of dolphinariums

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of known dolphinariums worldwide. Many of these places are more than just a dolphinarium, but are themeparks, marine mammal parks, zoos or aquariums that also have one or more dolphinariums. The current status of parks marked with an asterisk (*) is unknown, these parks may have closed down, moved, changed names or no longer house any dolphins. Due to the large amount of facilities worldwide, this list may not be complete. Facilities only housing porpoises are not listed.

Though Egypt and Russia are transcontinental countries, for the sake of keeping information together, they have been listed under Africa and Europe respectively.
