Very cool! A little pricy but we understood as they have the animals to think about. I am unable to walk well without losing my balance so it was great I could bring my scooter in. There are colored fish on the floor to mark your way that was helpful. I really loved the 🪼 jellyfish. So much to see and take in. Talk to the young adults who are there to help give information. As they teach you something, i feel they are learning to be more confident themselves. Proud of them all.

Really fun aquarium experience, lots of fishes and creatures for being in a pyramid. Mostly well maintained and the underwater Finale was great. Only recommendation is if going on a school day be weary of field trips. We came at open with 3 other schools. Just wait a little bit and wander till they pass and it be fine

Had a nice time. Lots of interesting sea creatures. Smelled like fish on and off. Several leaking tanks and wet floors contributed to that I'm sure. Maps and directions were unclear. For example what we're the yellow fish on the floor mean? And the blue fish? Lastly online ticket sales online and in person didn't work. One person on member services. Noone on ticket sales. Just kiosks, which didn't work. Other than that, no resteraunts were open no food or water available. Lots of fun.
