How to FIX Marineland Niagara Falls Ontario! 

They can't get rid of the animals because of a law in Ontario saying they can no longer transport or transfer or buy whales dolphins. Whoever bought it has to keep the belugas until they die and look after them

I haven't seen the sky screamer operate in years. You can see it from the golf course I play at, and it hasn't moved.

They could replace their actual sea life exhibits with something akin to Epcot's ball, where it's an educational ride about sea life with animatronics of the creatures.

I'm so glad someone made a video about this place. It's such a niche park.

Disney should buy it. “Disney Land Niagara Falls” would be pretty epic. It would be great competition for Canadas Wonderland. Disney Land has locations in different countries around the world. Canada would be a cool addition.

Marineland can use a complete overhaul. Get every flat ride, gentle and thrilling (carousel, swinging ship, top spin, enterprise, miniature car rides, log flume, scrambler, dodgem cars, Ferris wheel, observation tower, dark ride, motion simulators, top spins, magic carpet, snow cups) in the park. Get every roller coaster type ride (Looping, Hyper Coaster, Giga Coaster, Wooden, Inverted, Floorless, Flying, Dive, and Wing Coaster), even if it's not record breaking. Sky lift, Monorail, Miniature Train around the park to get from end to another. Put in a water park with a lot of water rides. Several hotels and resorts on the property. Offer different types of food and drinks you can't find anywhere else from BBQ, ice creams, burgers and sandwiches, fries, hot dogs, Italian, German, Mexican, Chinese, and Japanese type food. Souvenir hats, t-shirts, balloons, sunglasses, ATMs, and first aid rooms all over the park. Theming from the past, the future, the wild west, and from other countries themes. Keep on adding more over time, and Marineland can be a big moneymaker.

I would make this park into naruto land but that wont happen why? cuz in 3024 its still up

Great video! I want you to encourage more content like this!

It's hard to predict what its future will be until we know the new owner though I'd like to see the animals replaced with more rides and the park itself renamed to Niagara Theme Park.

the best bet would be to turn this park into an animal sanctuary as they have to keep these animals until they die, there is plenty of room for this. You can't have an amusement park with animals, the constant music and noise of screaming ect is not good for the animals and stresses them out, having said this the belugas are social creatures so people visiting them would help stimulate them as well as make revenue because these animals require specialized care and eat +++ daily, not to mention year round caregivers.

I live in the Niagara Region, and yeah, Marineland needs a massive update. It also would be good to have another actual amusement park in the area because Canada's Wonderland is always so crowded. If I were them, I would retire the animals to a sanctuary where they could live out the rest of their lives in peace, and focus a lot more on rides. Maybe keep the "marine" theming for those rides to set them apart from Wonderland, and like you said, use its natural scenery to its advantage. Then, maybe they'll actually get people going to the park again aside from the protesters camped out front.

Marineland (like much of Niagara Falls) was once considered the best ''regional sources of entertainment'' to visit (akin to Centre Island). You could spend a day visitting for a relatively low cost and the whole family had a good time. Now that the world is a ''global village'', and we're more educated on the harms of keeping animals in captivity, Marineland is no longer filling the needs of society it once did. Like most people who had childhood visits to Marineland I'll miss it, but sometimes you gotta let go of the past to experience a better future. Let's hope they can develop this land into an entertainment centre that fills the needs for present and future generations to come. I'd say Canada desperately needs a new theme park, but I know how expensive and risky those investments are...so hopefully something that can be sustained will go in! (Doug Ford seems determined to find a new permanent home for the Ontario Science Centre which might add some ''legitimacy'' to the campy, overpriced entertainment options of Cliffton Hill).

Everyone loves Marineland! ...but seriously, as someone who lived in Niagara Falls for several years...Marineland is kind of out of the way and not in the tourism area. There are far more popular things on or near Clifton Hill, like the Table Rock center operated by the Niagara Parks Commission (they do a lot).

Please SeaWorld buy this place

find a way to transport the animals to another place with the resources to survive, then get rid of the animal entertainment thingys where they were displayed, maybe add a 300ft giga coaster (something similar to millennium force at cedar point) or add a monorail system.

1:42 There's also rumors that the 100 Kellogg Lane Entertainment Complex owners (not affiliated with the Kellogg's company) bought it. Eastern Canada also makes sense as a place for Merlin Entertainments to try out the North American market.

Hershand juat closed up Dollywood, so would be nice to see their rides in Niagara

Ho about a couple dark rides. There are almost no Drak rides in Canada.

Good video bro, looks very professional

Large areas of this park will be replaced with housing, no question. The value of the land is the housing development potential. It would be surprising if the park stays open.

This place still open?

Adding a B&M dive, while the closest park to it (which is VERY close) has the tallest one in the world … how?

they should get an RMC coaster

I have snuck in the park after hours once and it was thr scariest things i am ever done. Even though i just walked around for bit but it was around 2:30 am ish i was getting out of the park and i heard something like a car or something so i booked it and ripped my hoodie on a fence. No cap

Follow the Knoebels business model. Abolish the entrance fee immediately. Convert the rides to a ticket model, allowing people to just enjoy the park and decide how many times they want to pay for the thrill rides. Add a campground and RV park in that back area. Add nature trails in the back area. Add some park shelters and spaces that people can rent for events. Change the name to ANYTHING other than Marineland. Lastly, for the animals...team up with the people who are protesting. Allow them to decide if the animals should be cared for in a zoological capacity or if they should he removed. If they decide to remove the animals...let them. The attraction here is the natural setting and the two main rides. Embrace the nature. Diversify the reasons people might visit, and encourage people enjoy just being there instead of feeling trapped by the entrance fee.

Okay, a couple of things: first, Marineland isn't a good theme park. I grew up in Niagara Falls (about fifteen minutes from Marineland) and enjoyed it when I was a kid but haven't enjoyed it since I was ten years old, in 1989. I did work there briefly, in my early twenties because it was an easy job to get, but didn't stay long (there are much better jobs to get). Contending that (to paraphrase) local kids could just as easily get their first job at Canada's Wonderland is not true; there's a two-hour drive between Niagara Falls and Canada's Wonderland. Crystal Beach used to be a good amusement park, but it's long gone, unfortunately Yes, the animals which can be released should be released; that's not all of them. Releasing some of the species wouldn't be safe), but all need to at least be rescued. The deer are in pitiful health from eating the pellets and ice cream cones the pellets are distributed in at the park -- the bears aren't in much better condition. As far as the distance between attractions at the park, why not add more attractions between the existing ones? There really isn't much to do at Marineland. If there are more things to do, it won't feel like patrons are just walking for hours. The greatest solution, in that regard, feels like discussing sale of Marineland to Ripley's (who already have an established, successful track record with aquariums as well as line-up attractions in Southern Ontario) or to Disney (who have the capitol to make something worthwhile out of a property the size of Marineland). I'm sure I wasn't the first to say any of this, but it feels worthwhile to say it all again. Marineland could be something good, but making it so won't come cheap. Uhm, why do you have footage of tigers in your video? There has never been any such thing at Marineland.

I hope your channel keeps growing!

Personally I Don't Think Marineland Is The Worst Park Ever But It Does Have It's Controversies. I Wish Someone Would Take Better Care of The Marine Animals. I Would Say If They Want To Keep Their Marine Life Shows I Would Say Change The Tank Water And Expand Them So The Don't Look So Trapped And With Added Transport Bay So The Marine Animals Used For The Shows Can Go To a Proper Sanctuary. And I Also Agree on The Water Themed Ride So It Doesn't Lose It's Aquatic Theming. I Would Say Focus on The Smaller Marine Animals Like The Jellyfish Display at Seaworld San Diego Instead of The Bigger Marine Animals Like The Orcas For Example. It Also Doesn't Help When Their Founder John Holer Passed Away. But Then Again Holer Should Known Better Then To Be Greedy. I Don't Know What Would Happen In Terms of Whats Happening To The Park Itself But I Hope It Makes Some Postive Changes.

I wouldn't really make direct comparisons with Marineland and Canada's Wonderland when it comes working there or even visiting since the parks are a 2.5 hour drive away from each other; with them being in Niagara Falls and Vaughan (Greater Toronto Area) respectively. So if you're visiting from the opposite cities it would only be as an occasional daytrip, and very few people would be willing to make that kind of commute to work; especially when it's a minimum wage job.

They have so much land and potential it's such a waste. Find a home for the mammals and start borrowing to build rides that can capture the media's attention for the right reasons

Simple, shut it down

It might help to clear all the hockey pucks off the rails once in a while.....

The dolphins and animals enclosed areas are large enough for them to swim, walk, run and enjoy the easy life. Marineland provides everything they need, food, water, shelter and love. In return don't you think the mammals and animals should provide something back in return like entertain us and the pleasure and joy for us to see them. There is nothing wrong with that. Humans always entertain because they get something back in return but animals and mammals shouldn't?, thats BS. The hard life for them is if they were in the wild hunting for their own food or be hunted and killed by other mammals or animals, or shot by hunters. If Marineland needs to correct some things if necessary, they should have the right and not close down. As for the animals who have died there, endless animals and people die all the time, it is not their fault.
