Create an itinerary including Okichan Theater
Enjoy remarkable dolphin acrobatics set against the picturesque backdrop of the East China Sea at Okichan Theater. The pride of the park, the dolphins jump, play and even dance along with the local music. Best of all, the dolphins display a fun-loving attitude, and you might find yourself laughing hysterically at their antics. The relatively short, wheelchair-friendly, child-appropriate show offers a fully covered seating area to protect you from rain.

  • Lovely and smart animals in this free show. Perfect time length for the stars and audiences. But the pool also too small for the whale.

  • Worth walking to for the show. Its just south past the Manatee and Turtle exhibits. Might want to get there 15 minutes earlier than show time for a better seat.

  • The spectators pored over the dolphin performance since it was very impressive. These dolphins are so intelligent and friendly. They are capable of doing many things required by the trainers. In...

  • Absolutely incredible show, and free to the public. Definitely stop by if you are there. It's crazy how smart the animals are, and how high they can jump.
  • There are 5 dolphin shows throughout the day (10:30am, 11:30am, 1pm, 3pm, 5pm). As the shows are free, we thought that the quality would be second-rate. WE WERE SO WRONG! IT WAS AWESOME! For more details, visit 2bearbear today!
  • Amazing and entertaining show!! My wife and I loved the dolphins' performance so much that we had to watch it twice on the same day. What's more, it is also free! But be sure to arrive at least half an hour earlier to get a good seat and view (especially during peak or holiday seasons)
  • Dolphin show theater inside the aquarium park. Because it's outside the aquarium building, you can go to the dolphin theater for free. Every day there are about 5 20-minutes show. Because there aren't many seats to enojoy they show, I recommend getting there about 30 minutes before the show in order to get the best seat.
  • What an great experience! Ive went just with my friends thinking that this is only family place but not at all. My friends and i both had fun and to sum it all up we had an amazing drink with ice cream from b1 floor underground enjoying this views.
