I think i liked it more than i should have, me not beeing a kid anymore 🙂 But it was fantastic, every minute of it. Very interactive, very educative, very easy for everybody to learn about new things about the world. Lots of species i have never seen or touched - like capybara, zones where birds where flying freely, seeing manatees for the first time and seeing how this institution fights to preserve wildlife. It was a pleasure! - 4/01/2025

The place is good, mostly visual and educational (kids would be entertained). Maybe 2-3 activities for adults
Went early on a Saturday not too crowded, could get tickets there fast. The parking was an issue, a bit far from the entrance (hot in the summer too much walking). There are multiple cafes inside but the place is also surrounded with restaurants. - 7/04/2025

A beautiful aquarium containing many marine creatures, birds and reptiles. A fun and educational visit for kids to learn facts via digital displays.
The aquarium alone was entertaining but if you can get animal encounter, fish feeding, boat rides etc in separate ticket options. The aquarium glass are very clean and maintained properly.
Overall a good experience for learning. - 5/15/2025

I had such a great time 😍 The place is really well set up and the atmosphere was super cool from the moment I walked in.. What I loved most was how each section had its own theme and decor it made the whole walk through way more fun and interesting.

I also liked that they had clear info next to the fish and marine animals, so you actually know what you're looking at. It made the experience not just fun but also kinda educational.

Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy sea life it’s great for both kids and adults. - 6/16/2025

Very nice aquarium, we got a discount on the all access ticket, it would not have been worth it for the full price, boat ride is short and the glass is not well see through with lots of scratches. It's great for kids but adults interested in marine life will enjoy too - 6/07/2025
