History
Born with the concept of a marine leisure park, the marine zoo has also become an amusement park and a water park. Zoomarine takes up the concept of the parks of the American group SeaWorld, just like the Zoomarine Algarve previously opened in Portugal, already owned by Mundo Aquatico SA. It attaches particular importance to the protection of nature and to the messages to convey to the public. It has a veterinary clinic and rehabilitation center for stranded animals.

In addition to its 5000 car park, there is a free shuttle service from Rome. Five hundred meters separate the park from the Tyrrhenian Sea. The construction of the park required 2 million euros which come from private resources with the support of large national banks.

In 2011, the park announced that its attendance had tripled in less than three years. It has grown from 220,000 visitors to more than 700,000 visitors per year, becoming the third Italian amusement park, an increase of 320%. Operating revenue increased from 5 to 20 million euros. That same year, director Stephen Cigarini was named director at Magicland (amusement park in Valmontone). Latella Aurelio resumes his post.

The company that owned Zoomarine Roma for a long time, Mundo Aquático, SA, was founded by Argentinian Pedro Lavia. This company is behind many other projects including the Mediterraneo Marine Park (Malta) and the Zoomarine (Portugal).

In 2015, the park was bought for 25 million euros by the Mexican company Dolphin Discovery.
