Worth it for the shows
A great zoo, but it’s worth the entry for the birds of prey and dolphin show alone. The bird of prey show is high up at the top of the hill so I’d recommend a hat, as it’s a bit of a sun trap. They have two of the biggest vultures I’ve ever seen, and they fly between the trainers what seems like inches above your head. The dolphin show is amazing, get there early before it starts if you want a seat in the shade. A photo with the dolphin is 20e or two photos (same person) for 30e. If you want the photo on your phone, you can stand just beside the professional photographer and take your own, he didn’t stop me, I think because you pay beforehand they probably don’t care at that point if you take your own as well. Drinks are 5e for 750ml cup and the bottle water is 3.50e out the machine.

Worth It For The Dolphin Show Alone
While I prefer seeing dolphins out in the Atlantic, the dolphins used in this show have all been rescued and would have died if left to fend for themselves. There is an obvious bond between dolphin and trainer. Only complaint is queuing up for food for 20 minutes to then be told "oh we don't actually have any food today" and being sent to another restaurant. Food is very very expensive so be warned. Easy enough to get to on the bus from Puerto Rico but buses quite sporadic for the return leg or 30ish euros for a taxi
