| An Intimate Experience |
The Theater of the Sea is located in Isla Morada, FL. General admission includes all the live shows by parrots, dolphins, and sea lions, a guided tour of the marine life exhibits and mangrove forest and a trip through the natural salt water lagoon on a bottomless boat. It is entertaining and educational.

While the Theater of the Sea is only 17 acres of lush tropical gardens and lagoons, it is home to dolphins sea lions, sea turtles, crocodilians, native birds, lively and colorful parrots and a living bouquet of native and exotic plants and orchids. It is easy and quick to move from show to show.

Theater of the Sea was established in 1946. It is the second oldest marine mammal facility in the world. The natural salt water lagoon was originally a quarry that supplied rock for Henry Flagler's famous railroad which opened the Keys to the rest of the country in the early 1900s.
This lagoon is now home to Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, California sea lions, sea turtles tropical and game fish, sharks, stingrays and other forms of marine life.
