"Don't miss the Shows"

Reviewed January 11, 2025 NEW

Sea Aquarium by itself was not that good but very few sea animals and nothing much to see. But there were couple of shows - One for dolphin and other with Sea Lions which were very good.

"I probably would not do this again. A lot of money for what it was."

The Dolphin Encounter was great, but I was not prepared for the encounter to be with a large group. I really thought it would my son and I only. We still really enjoyed the experience. The aquarium itself looked to be on the brink of closure--there were not many people in attendance and we were there on a Saturday. Everyone seemed to be at the Dolphin Encounter.

"Awesome relaxed day...so glad I didn't go by the bad reviews, had a great time"

Reviewed December 23, 2024

What are people expecting here. Look if you love... sting rays (best touch pool, and been to tons), Dolphins, (up and personal encounters), Flamingos (closest we have ever gotten) then you will love this place. Its not SeaWorld, although it was cleaner than sea world. Its like $40 and you can get closer to these species than anywhere else. AND no lines... walk and enjoy. No it does not have 500 different fish to look at, but the ones it does have you can't get closer to than anywhere else. Trainers were friendly and really had knowledge, shout out to Sting Ray, Bamboo Shark touch & Dolphin Encounter trainers today! I really don't know what people are thinking $40 gets you but seriously Friendly, Clean park to spend the afternoon. Don't forget the seals, sea lions, penguins & Nurse shark feeding. Not exceptional but never saw a nurse shark feeding either. Great day for the whole family, felt like we had the place to ourselves. Reality was prob 100 people thro the day. BTW oldest dolphin here is 48, yup... he would have died at 16 for all you holier than tho freaks that don't realize some need rescued because of people being Idiots. Thanks for a great day. Merry Christmas.

"Hardly an aquarium"

Reviewed December 03, 2024

Whoever wrote the description of this place being a world class aquarium must have not even been to a pet store because I have seen more variety at those than at this aquarium. This place is a tourist trap. Paid $20 to park all day and it only took about 30 minutes to walk around the "park". The sign at the front desk says no refunds, and after walking in I learned why it must be necessary for them. I feel bad for the animals. There is one larger reef "tank" and a few smaller surrounding tanks, one dolphin tank with two dolphins and nothing else, A seal exhibit with two seals, A shark/ray exhibit, penguins and tropical birds. That's it. Many of the areas were closed like discovery bay. Some of the smaller tanks had "conservation" information instead of fish. If they are really interested in conservation then send these animals to a real aquarium. We should have gone to the zoo. There are probably more aquatic animals there.

"Fins up!"

Reviewed November 16, 2024

llsi R. Was very helpful and all around professional. A great person to have on your team. She deserves a raise. Other than that I was told not to put my hand in the water with the stingrays and to not have my hands over the railing by the dolphin exhibit and I do apologize for that, I have learned from my mistakes.
