Marineland for adults?

I am going to Niagara Falls for the casino. During the day, I need to kill a couple of hours. Will Marineland be fun for a young couple (28 years old).

Yes, but there's probably better things to do. Take the Maid of the Mist boat ride to the bottom of the falls, go visit a winery near Niagara on the lake, go behind the falls on a tour, visit the weird museums on Clifton Hill, go to the Butterfly Conservatory,<BR>etc.<BR><BR>BAK

Don't waste your time at Marineland, when there is so much else to do. The last time I was there, my smallish kids enjoyed themselves, but I was bored stupid. Brian's other suggestions are excellent, particularly the Maid of the Mist. If you have wheels, take a leisurely drive up the parkway to Niagara-on-the-Lake and back, stopping for a snack if you have the time (it's about 15 minutes one way, in normal traffic), and enjoy the lovely scenery.

Marineland is not very interesting for anyone over the age of six.<BR>Take a short 10 minute drive to Niagara On The Lake. It won the award for "The Prettiest Town" a couple of years ago. Great outdoor cafes, window shopping, wineries and people watching. The cafes are a great place for celebrity watching!<BR>Have fun.

Here's another recommendation for Niagara-on-the-Lake. I'm guessing there's a typo above, it's a 30 minute drive each way - beautiful scenery along the way. In addition to what's mentioned above, a walk lakeside to the Gazebo is worthwhile. On a clear day, you can see the skyline of Toronto.
