a week agoWe had so much fun the day we came! There was so much to look at. My favorite things were the huge aquarium with all the different species in it and the tanks with the jelly fish in them that you could pet! That was one of the coolest things I've ever done! We had a great time!

2 months agoI recently visited The Florida Aquarium in Tampa, and it was an overall great experience. The exhibits are well-designed, educational, and perfect for all ages. One of the highlights was the Wetlands Trail, where you can see otters, alligators, and even free-flying birds in a beautifully recreated Florida ecosystem. The Coral Reef exhibit was another standout, featuring a massive tank filled with colorful fish, sharks, and sea turtles. The interactive experiences were a nice touch, especially the stingray touch tank and the Moon Bay exhibit, where you can touch jellyfish. If you’re visiting with kids, the Splash Pad outside is a great way for them to cool off and burn some energy. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, happy to answer questions and share fun facts about marine life. The only downside was that it can get pretty crowded, especially on weekends, but that’s to be expected at such a popular attraction. Overall, The Florida Aquarium is a fantastic place to explore marine life and learn about conservation. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, it’s well worth a visit! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
