The Dolphinarium together with the Lithuanian Sea Museum and the Aquarium form a unique complex that introduces the water world to the visitors. The opening ceremony of the Dolphinarium, which is the only one on the eastern Baltic Sea coast, was held on April 30th, 1994. The Dolphinarium could not function without its sophisticated technical installations. The modern technologies of water preparation, filtration and regeneration help us maintain conditions suitable for the animals in the three pools of the Dolphinarium. The water pumped into the Dolphinarium is salt water (6–7 pro mille) from the Baltic Sea. Before entering the pools, the water is treated in mechanical filters, then it is sterilized by saturation with chlorine compounds and exposured to UV radiation, and finally the required quantity of white salt is added to the water for proper salinity, i.e. 18 pro mille. In winter the water is heated to maintain a temperature of 18–20°C. The cycle of the total pool water volume circulation and re-filtration (re-circulation) takes place every five hours. Considerable attention is paid to the air conditioning of the premises.
