  • I don't remember the last time I was here but we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The price is average for any attraction you would go like this. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable about questions we asked. There was information posted on each exhibit. They had live shows with the penguins and sea lions. And what I found best about this attraction was the sea creatures/ animals were all rescued for one reason or another and those that are able to be rehabilitated are let back out into their natural habitats.
  • The aquarium is good but small even though it's two levels. We expected more exhibits although the ones they had were really good especially the jellyfish. The seal show was excellent and made up for it a little bit. Good service when we had to cancel one ticket. Also we could do with a little less preaching about the environment at every single exhibit. Tell us more about the animals.
  • No major complaints other than you can't reenter? With 2 small ones it would have been cool if we could have come back for some of the demonstrations. However, it was clean and a part of the greater work that humans do with animals (conservation and preservation)! Very informative and interactive. The hurricane wind is fun, and the vending machine is cheap enough. We had fun!
  • The aquarium was a brief tour for us. It took about an hour. We did not see any of the scheduled shows (poor timing on our part). The exhibits were well maintained and colorful. I got some beautiful pictures though! A great touch pool for visitors. We are from Baltimore and it is MUCH smaller than the The National Aquarium, so we were a bit surprised.
  • It is a great spot to check out with family with kids. There were performances with sea lions. It was amazing. There was also a small segment with penguins as well. It was good too. Although it was a little bit small compared to other aquariums but still had a lot of things happening. We enjoyed our time there.
