The Florida Aquarium

The aquarium was such an incredible experience! I honestly could have spent so much more time there because there was so much to see and learn. Everything was really well done, and I loved how knowledgeable and helpful the staff were. My boyfriend especially enjoyed the SeaTREK experience. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to participate because of my asthma, which was definitely disappointing in the moment since I was really looking forward to doing it with him. However, I really appreciated how seriously the staff took my safety. They were careful and made it clear that guest safety comes first, and I can absolutely respect that. Even though I wasn’t able to do everything I wanted, we still had such a great time and would definitely visit again. There’s so much to explore that I feel like we could have easily spent an entire day there!

Always a great experience! Family friendly and lots of fun events all day! *plus the food is good from the cafeteria! I do miss the 4d theater and not a fan they charge extra for the vr simulator

Had a great time at the Florida Aquarium yesterday. It was feeding time for a lot of the animals so they where out and super hungry. As we walked to see different animals the great staff explained all about the animals. So friendly the had a touch mirror camera. That was fun and it gets sent to you right away. No cost on those pictures you can even put cute little emojis on the pic. Had a toddler with me no stroller but he did great. I would definitely recommend the Aquarium great for all ages and on a rainy or hot day it's perfect. So if you live here or on a vacation I would say go have fun and enjoy these beautiful animals. They even have events throughout the year such as sleep overs, and I believe they offer discounts specials for Florida residents. Definitely have annual pass deals.

The Florida Aquarium has held a special place in my heart for years! During my maternity leave, I would come here just to relax, watch the fish, and enjoy a little peace. Over time, that quiet place became somewhere I could bring my children to explore, learn, and make memories of their own. We’ve continued renewing our membership year after year, and I love that every visit feels a little different. I’ve watched my children grow up exploring the same place that once gave me a moment to slow down. It’s so much more than an aquarium to me. It’s been a place of peace, discovery, and beautiful memories through so many different seasons of life. 🐠💙

It's nice. A bit outdated and definitely pricey. We went during the week so and first thing in the morning. No wait. They provide a veteran's discount so make sure you ask if you're a veteran or active duty. The staff is knowledgeable and interactive. Some displays you can touch the animals. Nice gift shop. Plenty of things to choose from for a souvenir. Definitely a good place to take kids. Takes about an hour to tour the aquarium but you can take all day if you want. There is a cafeteria located on site and a few snack stands. Parking is available at an extra cost.
