Tip: If you go early, prices are a little better and small crowds!!" > — Lezlee Price, June 2026 > "Awesome! There’s not a whole lot to it for the price you’re paying. The best part is the mirror maze but even that is pretty short. I just think they need to offer a little more for the price they’re charging." > — Melissa Wells, April 2026 > "Excellent" > — Jennifer Wright, March 2026 > "Aquarium at boardwalk review!" > — Saleena E., January 2026 > "Amazing Aquarium.
