We really enjoyed it. The buffet was good, but not spectacular. Lots of choices, and everyone found things they liked. We were all certainly full when we left.

Our table was right up against the water, which was nice. I think there was only one row behind us, so everyone had a great view.

There wasn't a "show" so to say. The trainers introduced themselves and the whales (it was a mother and baby for us), then worked with training the whales, explaining to us what they were doing.

Afterwards, there was a chance to meet with and talk with the trainers.

It was a really, really hot day (August) when we were there, and I was concerned that the restaurant was outside. But, it was nicely shaded, and didn't turn out to be an issue at all.

We plan to do it again.

my son will be 4 and we will have a 9 month old as well - do you think it will be suitable for the 4 yr old ??

We have done it twice now and my DD was only 3 the first time and 4 the second,thouroughly enjoyed it-we had front row seats right in the middle-the food was very good and it was great seeing the whales close up and I mean close up!!
It is well worth the money-we ate at 15.45 but I think there is a later sitting although we were not offered one when I booked over 6 months in advance.When you book ask for a table near the water as you have a little one-if you are celebrating a birthday,anniversary tell them-we were on our honeymoon and recieved a loveley cake shaped like shamu and 2 glasses of wine.
Good luck
