Rebecca AponteAugust 2, 2015Great place to take the kids. Total tour will run you about 2 hours including 1-2 shows. If you are going to do an excursion, choose an afternoon session so crowds are smaller- loved the staff.
Sherry ShularOctober 24, 2015Very nice time! Nice aquarium. Love the dolphins. New baby name Kaya, 6 months old. Oldest dolphin was 41. Really nice show.- David EstesSeptember 16, 2016Staff were friendly. It was clean and nice. Loved all the exhibits especially the Dolphin show and loved how they educate you as well. You should go 👍😁
marty boyzuckJanuary 1, 2020The Dolphin show is a must... but do t overlook the Sea Lion Show... less crowded, and very entertaining!
- AJune 7, 2023A ton of fun for the kids. The dolphin and sea lion shows are fantastic. Show up to the dolphin show early.
AmandaAugust 12, 2012Spend the extra money and do the "ocean odyssey" encounter. it is SO worth it. i would have made the 8 hour drive from Texas just for this adventure.
- Paul ShimmonsApril 5, 2016Perfect little Aquarium and great spot to swim with the stingrays and sharks!
Jimmy MurrayMay 29, 2013The only way you can touch the sting rays is by jumping in the tank with them. The staff gets really mad when you do that with the animals and the trainers.
TaraSeptember 21, 2012We saw the mixed reviews & hoped for the best. The place is small, lucky for us it wasn't very crowded. Great for kids. Stand on the side of the pool at the dolphin show.- Julio LemusApril 26, 2013Definitely a great place for children! Not expensive at all, tickets or food and great quality interactive shows and show cases.
Liz CurrierAugust 3, 2015Try an experience, such as swimming with the stingrays and sharks. (: Not just for little kids ... Fun for all ages !!- Melina RushJuly 22, 2015The dolphins are really cute and also you see penguins and alot of other cool stuff :)
Penny ChristensenMay 27, 2012The best AC here is at the alligator area restrooms, past the Sea Lions.
Mark MendozaJune 27, 2011It's not the best but for the price it was good. If you have kids it good enough
Kody FrazierMay 25, 2011It's not seaworld. For the price though you get plenty of family entertainment.
Kellie BrittonJune 11, 2014Don't get the food, it's nasty, takes forever to get, and is not worth the price at all. Yuck! Just bring your own food, anything else is better.
Beckie RutledgeJuly 7, 2011Everything is outdoors & you walk around. Wasn't impressed with animal enclosures & touch tank was a joke. Save your money & skip the whole place.
Brent LaFrancisJuly 12, 2011Don't bother, what a waste if money. Go to the ocean, you'll see more action and less fungus
David RodriguezJuly 14, 2014It's tiny, expensive, and not very good.... They had ONE (1) turtle on their main display.. Dolphin show is 90% boring talk and 10% what a dophin show normally is... SKIP IT... not worth it....
