Adventure Aquarium

We really enjoyed the exhibits, especially the interactive ones. We went with our toddler (almost 3), so there were some things she couldn't reach. But overall, we had a great time. The best part is the shark tunnel! The hippos were sleeping when we were there, so that was a little disappointing. Parking is available for $10, which is not bad. You get a great view of the river as you walk to the entrance. You can also take the ferry across the river. You can bring your own food and drink with you, but they also have a cafe and a couple food stands inside. The gift shop is nice as well.

I'm not sure what's happening, but I feel as though for the prices of these tickets, the aquarium doesn't offer much. The little kids had fun like anyplace they can be easily amused, but for my bigger kids and adults, we can see how it isn't a must go aquarium. We went during the bubble party, which was so quick. They did it every 30 minutes, but it was quick. They were under construction in some parts, which I feel should offer discounted prices if part of the aquarium is not accessible. They also had a bubble show, and the worker poor guy didn't do well and was unorganized. Whatever he tried to do didn't work out and just a waste of time and soap, lol. They can do better honestly make it fun. There are lots of spaces that can be used to learn about sea animals. Have more workers out in different parts actually engaging with people and teaching about the animals besides the the touching sections. Also have more handwashing areas all around not just sanitizer here and there. They had picture set ups that you can tell they threw together but put no effort. The outside play section was cool. This is just an opinion, I wouldn't visit there again mind you it's been a year or two since my last visit. I heard about one in Maryland going to try that one even though it's 2 hours away I heard it worth it and the prices are not too far off but children under 4 are free unlike this aquarium.

I've had the pleasure of visiting this aquarium twice, and it’s absolutely a must-visit spot for families, especially those with kids. The aquarium is impressively spacious and filled with an incredible variety of sea life. Walking across the shark bridge was thrilling, and the shark tunnel is simply breathtaking. The interactive stingray touch experience was an unforgettable highlight! The mermaid show was enchanting—kids are bound to adore it. While I loved exploring with my baby, I did feel a bit of guilt seeing the penguins lined up, waiting for their turn to be fed by staff. It’s a bittersweet reminder of nature’s creations relying on humans. That said, the sea life here appears well-cared-for and healthy. The aquarium is exceptionally well-maintained, with friendly staff ensuring a great experience. The restrooms were spotless, and the restaurant offers quick bites for when hunger strikes. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to visit and a perfect outing for families with kids!

Very cool place for both adults and kids. So much to see. Sharks, penguins, sea turtles, and more. There are sting rays you can even pet! Food court inside of you get hungry and a coffee stand. Well kept place that is clean and accessible. There are elevators for those who need them.

Nice experience with kids. There are two touching exhibits of sharks and stingrays that we love. The aquarium is not that big so we spent about planning 2.5 hours there without rushing.
