  I've been here twice now and have really enjoyed it both times. One of the best days of my life was the first time I went and the sloth was down and eating and I got to stand inches away from it! Best. Day. Ever! I highly recommend going early because the animals are typically more active earlier in the day and the crowds are more mellow. Expect quite a bit of people no matter what.

  This place was weirdly laid out. Everything had only one way traffic and the elevators are slow and old. It is not stroller friendly on busy days because there's not a lot of room. There's surprisingly very little fish for an aquarium and they had equal amounts of birds. Many areas of tanks are open and would be easy to fall in, especially the stingray area. The native American tribal dance was interesting and the walk through tunnel tank of sharks would be good for those who aren't terrified of sharks (as I am). It was enjoyable for my kids but I think they charge too much for the amount of aquarium you get to see. Not really interesting enough to go as an adult without kids.

  Love this aquarium. Love the design and thoughtful setup. The best time to go is close to closing time. It doesn't take hours to travel the whole exhibit unless it's crowded, which it usually is!!! But if you go like 2 hours to close, man, it's peaceful and you can really appreciate it more with out the crowd. It is pricey as others stated but I actually feel it's worth the money, I really like this place. More than an aquarium.

  Love this place! Family friendly (strollers, wheel chairs, walking), educational, and fun! There’s just never enough time to truly sit and observe the animals. They are all amazing creatures of God. Start off with the huge anteaters and make your way around to see birds, monkeys, turtles, alligators, penguins, bats, sharks, and even a few bunnies! Lots of different animals than those at a zoo. Definitely worth the trip and time. Enjoy!

  This place was pretty cool. Didn't have just aquatic type animals but had monkeys, crocodiles, penguins, owls, and a bunch of other animals here. Money well spent in my opinion. The gift shop was very reasonably priced so I walked away with quite a few things. The food at the cafe, restaurant, and snack bar...and yeah they had all three, had great menus. Not expensive at all. Definitely going to try to go again when I get some more time off. Took quite a while too see everything so it isn't one of those places where you places where you pay and your done with everything within the hour. Took us about 4 hours to check everything out. Highly recommend to anyone to anyone looking for a way to spend time with the family.
