East Pond Lookout at Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium

Positive experience: Bring the kid all the time it’s always fun, pretty small in terms of aquariums but it’s quality.

Positive experience: Pretty lookout, not as crowded as the aquarium, still packed. The trail is full of mosquitos, spiders, and some snakes. Park attached.

Positive experience: This aquarium is not very large, and buying a single ticket isn’t cost-effective. It’s better for a family to purchase a membership package. The kids had a great time inside, but adults can finish touring in about an hour.

Positive experience: PK Shores aquarium has been the exact same for at least 25 years. They have some great fish and reptile exhibits and it is relatively inexpensive. You can generally see everything there is to see in 45 minutes.

Positive experience: It's fairly decent. They got all the cool fishes and 2 otters. Other than that nothing too exotic.

Positive experience: Kinda small for how popular it is! At the time we went the outside area there was nothing to look at and it was in the middle of the day. Not sure why it was like that! Also the only way to go out and in from the outside area was the same door (it didn’t circle through) and the walk way was very crowded!

Fantastic experience: Not the biggest aquarium but it was still a great place to visit!

Fantastic experience: Occasionally the eagle is fed in front of whoever is walking by. Pretty cool. There is a dock you can walk down to get a better view of the area.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful sea animals, excellent designs, super kind people. The place looks like new. Full of interesting creatures and information. We loved it!
