🗣️ Acuario de Quebec: Opiniones
Experiencia positiva: Ça vaut le déplacement rapport qualité/prix mais déception beaucoup travaux plateau artique très décevant et jamais vue d ours polaires.
Experiencia positiva: Je suis resté sur ma faim. Trop de pas assez !
Experiencia fantástica: Très belle endroit, c'est la première fois que je venais à cet aquarium,j'ai adoré. Nous avons passer 4h sur le lieu,il y a beaucoup de jeux pour les enfants ( toboggan,grimepette,planche en bois et jeux d'eau .......) c'est une bonne activité à faire en famille.
Experiencia fantástica: Vraiment une belle activité en famille. Module de jeux et jeux d'eau en plus :) beaucoup d'espace pour pique-niquer ! Vraiment le fun les présentations + Collations des animaux
Experiencia positiva: Assez cher pour ce qu'il y a à faire/voir. Ont fait vite le tour. Il manque de toilette, plusieurs files pour les toilettes.
Experiencia positiva: Plus une endroit auquel on regarde des gens regarder des poisson,
Experiencia positiva: Buildings were very warm and stuffy and the amount of animals is low, however the hands-on-exhibits were great.
Experiencia fantástica: Oh c'est magnifique vraiment
Experiencia negativa: Moitié du parc fermé pour travaux lourds. Ça sent le pot d'échappement de pelleteuse mécanique sur tout le parc. Trop de monde malgré la capacité réduite. Embouteillage de poussettes dans les couloirs, file d'attente aux uniques ascenseurs si vous avez une poussette, bruit assourdissant de cris en tout genre. Les aquariums ? Même pas pu les voir, ils sont tapissés de monde qui ne veulent pas vous laisser 1cm pour regarder. Ma fille a pu faire du tobogán 30min et voir un phoque 5 minutes sans se faire marcher dessus par la foule de touriste pro-trump. A 27$ l'entrée pour 1 adulte et un enfant de moins de 2 ans ça laisse un goût amer et on y retournera pas.
Experiencia negativa: Il y a du potentiel pour ce site mais pour le moment , c’est en construction et assez décevant. Il devrait y avoir des panneaux qui expliquent quelles installations sont temporaires parce que ça fait pitié pour certaines espèces ( phoques, renard, hiboux). Les phoques n’ont qu’un minuscule bassin. Je comprends que les animaux sont en captivité et que ce ne sera jamais comme la liberté mais un semblant d’environnement naturel pourrait être bien. Certains aquariums sont vides d’environnement et d’aménagement comme ceux des méduses. Elles ont peut être besoin de rien, mais nues comme ça, dans un petit bassin d’eau, elles font pitié… Et que dire des étoiles de mer qui se font agresser toute la journée par des mains pas toujours très douces.. Pour ce qui est du stationnement, c’est un cauchemar! Il est trop étroit, c’est difficile d’y circuler avec les voitures qui reculent, les piétons, les poussettes… et sans oublier la sortie qui est tellement étroite que les plus gros véhicules doivent s’y prendre à plusieurs fois pour sortir. Pour une installation neuve, c’est pas fort!! Bref , la visite pourrait être intéressante, le site est magnifique. En espérant que la fin des rénovations améliorera tous les points négatifs. Il pourrait être bien d’aviser les visiteurs que le site est en construction. Comme ça on saurait à quoi s’attendre et il y aurait peut être moins de commentaires négatifs.
Experiencia fantástica: L'aquarium en voûte est superbe, rénovation en cours été 2025
Experiencia negativa: Under construction!! Very disappointing. Parking is a good 5 to 10 minute walk away. No discount on the admission charge.
Experiencia positiva: It is a pretty new one ( still in construction). However, you can have a nice time there; petting the sting rays, starfish, and sea urchins... This was my first time seeing polar bears, which made my experience to visit this aquarium worth it !!!
Experiencia negativa: It was 40 degrees today in Quebec city and the polar bears, Arctic foxes and the Greenland seals were all outside in the heat and scorching sun. This is torture for the poor animals. I hope they will build better conditions for the summer (aka air conditioned areas for them to stay in).
Experiencia positiva: Honestly, there was less animals than before. Site is under construction and hopefully it will be better when all is set and done.
Experiencia fantástica: Guides are really polite and respectful. The aquarium was in construction, but still I managed to see all the animals, even polar bear in the 33 degree temperature.
Experiencia fantástica: While we missed the polar bear exhibit, which I suspect was due to hot weather and construction, we had a tremendous time. This was our second visit, but it was certainly enjoyable. I would recommend this beautiful city and the aquarium, in particular, to anyone.
Experiencia fantástica: A visit to the Aquarium du Québec is a delightful experience for all ages. One of the highlights is the incredible variety of jellyfish—mesmerizing, colorful, and beautifully displayed in well-lit tanks that give you a close-up look at these fascinating creatures. Another standout feature is the interactive stingray pool. Guests can actually touch the stingrays, making it an exciting, hands-on experience, especially for kids. It's both educational and fun, offering a rare opportunity to connect with marine life. The grounds of the aquarium are just as impressive as the exhibits inside. Beautifully landscaped gardens and flowing fountains provide a serene and scenic setting, perfect for a leisurely stroll between attractions or for taking a break outdoors. A visit wouldn't be complete without seeing the polar bear, a true crowd-pleaser. Watching this magnificent animal swim and play is unforgettable, and the enclosure is designed to offer great viewing angles. Whether you're visiting with children or just looking for a peaceful and engaging place to explore, the Aquarium du Québec offers a well-rounded, enriching experience. Highly recommended!
Experiencia positiva: It was raining so the outside stuff was a write off but still enough stuff inside to pass a few hours. The building work makes it hard for people in wheelchairs etc to get nearby as the parking is all a little bit of a walk
Experiencia negativa: Parc half closed. Full price. What a rip off. Parking is like 1km away, no sidewalk. Had to walk in the mud and stuff while it was raining. Really not fun.
Experiencia fantástica: Aquarium du Québec is a great place to visit with family! We loved the variety of marine animals — belugas, walruses, jellyfish, seals — everything is well organized and focused on nature education. Our child especially enjoyed the play area and animal feedings. The atmosphere is relaxing, the grounds are clean, and there are cafes and resting areas. Highly recommend for all ages!
Experiencia fantástica: Despite the construction the visit was really nice. Not only are there amazing displays of the live fish and other things (I wasn't able to stay to visit the whole site), but there are beautiful walkways and gardens outside the exhibits. I will definitely be going back again with all of my grandchildren.
Experiencia fantástica: Great experience. My family enjoyed the visit.
Experiencia positiva: Nice place, great friendly staff, some fun stuff to do (such touch and feed the rays)
Experiencia negativa: No warning that half the place is under construction and barely any animals. No polar bears or walruses. Even the restaurant closed a hour ahead of the park's closing time. This was not our first time here and got to say this time was very disappointing. Absolute waste of money. I do not suggest you go here until the renovations are completed.
Experiencia fantástica: I’m greatfull with the experience. I don’t like to much to see the animals locked up but they know how take care about them.
Experiencia fantástica: It’s was I really good experience to see the bear for first time
Experiencia fantástica: Amazing! Can't wait for the renos to be done it's already perfect ❤️. Just make sure to plan your visit around when the polar bear viewing is or you might not see him if it's a hot day.
Experiencia positiva: There's currently a lot of construction around the entrance and accessway to the aquarium. Pedestrians arriving by bus need to walk a 20min detour down Rue Valmont, then along a bike path, to get to the aquarium.
Experiencia positiva: The exhibits are wonderful but they are under construction and some of the exhibits are closed or have limited availability but the biggest thing is not clear where to park during the construction.
Experiencia fantástica: We love the aquarium. Great family outing. There is some construction to improve the outdoor exhibits at the moment. Its better to buy tickets ahead of time.
Experiencia fantástica: Incredible but a little underwhelming compared to the pictures online. I was expecting the underwater tunnel to be longer than the 10-20 feet it was. Still pretty neat experience and looks like its expanding.
Experiencia fantástica: FISH MANY FISH I really liked looking at all the jellyfish. One of the staff showed me her very cool jellyfish tattoo It was a bit busy but that was our own fault for going on a weekend
Experiencia positiva: Went on a cold and rainy afternoon and ended up having a really good time. Parking was a bit of a walk because of nearby construction but once we got in, everything was easy to navigate. The indoor exhibits were solid with cool tanks and a great jellyfish section. They also had areas where you could touch stingrays and starfish which was a nice bonus even though our toddler just wanted to keep moving. The place is super stroller friendly which made the whole visit way more relaxed. Wide paths and ramps everywhere so no issues getting around. We missed the polar bears by a few minutes since the recommended viewing time was 2:15 which we didn’t know until after. Would’ve loved to see them since our kid is obsessed. The Arctic foxes were out though and absolutely beautiful. Saw that they’re older than their expected age which made it feel special. The seal area felt a bit small but they’re building new habitats so good to see upgrades coming. Gift shop had some nice stuff and we left with a new polar bear plush. One heads up is that it closes at 4 which is a bit earlier than expected so plan accordingly. Overall a great visit for families with young kids. Even with the weather and missing a few animals we had a fun and easy afternoon. Would come back.
Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful experience, saw polar bears and arctic foxes for the first time, wonderful collection of fishes and sea creatures
Experiencia fantástica: This was a very nice experience for being there early in the season.. They are doing some major additions and infrastructure work, this place I expect will look amazing once finished. I will have to come back when all the new habitats are completed.
Experiencia positiva: Quite a bit of construction underway. For the price, it is fair. Takes about 2 hours to see everything. I wouldn’t return until the renovations are finished.
Experiencia negativa: We were turned away at the gate due to not purchasing online tickets however as we struggled to manipulate buying them online three other groups of desks paid at the gate— attendant was rude Animals were sparse and looked unwell especially Artic fox Darkness in the halls of fish helped the effect however a gentleman could not see the heaters on opposite of hall and ran right into it— hope he’s okay Labelling of fish hard to read in the dark Two gentlemen at the starfish and rays were exceptional with children and added little humor to adults — amazing to see Perphaps re-open after construction
Experiencia fantástica: Amazing time here with the family, I loved the jelly fish exhibit, the polar bears are huge, was a little complicated to find the bears because there’s some construction beside them, but they had put signs to help guide you, but overall loved the experience, loved being outside, it’s a really nice experience
Experiencia negativa: The only good thing about this place is the view on the bridge. A lot of fish tanks were closed, others were looking old and worn out. Even kids didn’t enjoy it. Waste of money (quite expensive for such an experience).
Experiencia positiva: The sting rays were definitely the nightly for us. A lot of exhibits were under construction, and the outdoor activities are not great during the colder months. Would be interested to come back when they’re done the renovations in a few years.
Experiencia fantástica: I was there inspectiong formwork done by the company where I work. Beautiful place.
Experiencia negativa: What a horrible place!!! Why does anyone like this. Contruction mess on the way up, contruction noises on the inside. My you g child spent the entire time scared to bits not because of fish, but because of all of the loud noises. Dont recommend coming here and never coming back.
Experiencia fantástica: We spent about 4 hours seeing everything. Kids 7 and 10 years old were on cloud nine.
Experiencia positiva: I thought I’d see fish, not construction crews! Save your tickets until the aquarium is back in action.
Experiencia negativa: If you’re planning to take your kids here, please reconsider. Teach them to love and respect animals and their environments. The very first animal we saw, a turtle, was constantly scratching its claws against the glass. The lobster in the petting area (which is already a terrible concept for any animal) had its claws glued together. In the same tank, the starfish were clearly distressed and trying to protect themselves. Not to mention the famous polar bears, which are somehow living in Quebec City! Many of the plants were clearly fake, and we even saw a clothes clip inside one of the fish tanks. I also have to mention the dozens of tiny tanks where fish are kept. It was deeply upsetting. I couldn’t enjoy the visit knowing so many living beings are being confined for no reason other than to be on display for the public. It’s not just the animals’ enclosures, the hallways for visitors looked neglected and abandoned. Overall, this place gave off very bad vibes, and I strongly believe an animal protection organization should investigate the Aquarium du Québec. Respect animals.
Experiencia positiva: Went during off season on a cloudy Tuesday. Quite a few aquariums were closed. There’s a lot of construction going on for a 2-3 story high garage which will probably be ready this year and a new building set to ooen in 2026 for seals and otters . So the outside area was meh. We did see the 2 polar bears, a white fox, an owl and seals in their outdoor pools. The jellyfish are always my favorite. We saw a whole bunch of fish, mini sharks, seahorses, got to oet starfish, anemones and rays. To top it off we were just lucky enough to have staffers feed 2 seals while it was just the 2 of is present. Perfect visit ❣️
Experiencia fantástica: Second time visiting this aquarium and both times have been amazing. Love seeing the different jellyfish they have. They also had polar bears my second time around which were amazing to see. Lots of construction happening at the moment to grow the space which has some exhibits closed but doesn't affect overall.
Experiencia fantástica: Awesome friendly atmosphere, great for children and families
Experiencia fantástica: It is really nice to touch the lil stingrays! The museum is great, and the design is amazing. They really manage to show the animals in the best way possible. Amazing experience, and worth the trip to Quebec alone.
Experiencia positiva: Many installations under construction, but it is overall it is a great experience. Touching the stingrays was definitely a highlight of our trip.
Experiencia fantástica: Worth the experience. My kids really love the seal and polar bear. This is must visit in Quebec. Oh yes, u can touch the stingray
Experiencia negativa: Make reservations before you go. If you do not have reservations don't bother going. No ticket is available at the door. There is construction around the area. Parking arrangement is very poor and extremely disorganized. We wasted 2 hours to find out we cannot go in.
Experiencia fantástica: A must see when visiting montreal. Families will love it.
Experiencia positiva: Aquarium of Quebec: $50 for two adults, or as I call it, a donation to construction-themed obstacle courses where most things are closed in the winter months. But hey, that’s just Quebec being Quebec—if there aren’t cones, are you even in the province? Still, it’s a solid spot. Cool exhibits, arctic foxes doing their fluffy thing, jellyfish floating like they’re on something stronger than saltwater. But I swear, every visit there’s one less animal. It’s like a slow magic trick—now you see them, now they’ve moved to Abu Dhabi. Speaking of which, RIP (Relocated In Paradise) to Boris the walrus. He’s not dead, just upgraded to luxury walrus life in the UAE. Miss you, blubber boy. Parking lot can get real busy—arrive early!!!
Experiencia positiva: We had a great visit. Weather wasn't great to see all the outdoor attractions, but what we did experience was great. We will be back in a nicer day to take in the outdoor attractions and shows.
Experiencia positiva: All in all a decent aquarium. There was a lot of construction going on which made it a little less enjoyable. And the polar bears and artic foxes seemed kind of sad. The jelly fish exhibit was really cool and the highlight for me.
Experiencia positiva: A very good place for kids. Have a large collection. Can pet star fish and stingrays. Another attraction is the polar bears. Open throughout the year. Best in summer, during winter, not many places you can visit without getting exposed to harsh winter weather. This makes me give 4 stars.
Experiencia fantástica: Nice place to visit with kids all ages. There are elevators and a breastfeeding place. Some spots to dine or snack, with a restaurant. Some animals are outside so make sure you are appropriately dressed. Just a head up that some rooms are really dark.
Experiencia positiva: Great place to bring kids at. Would recommend getting tickets in advance to avoid a long wait time to get in. We visited during March Break and it was quite busy.
Experiencia positiva: It was interesting place. The only thing was that, they said we need to buy tickets online even when we were in the entrance of it. So people were trying to buy tickets online by their phones at the entrance . It took time and I never saw sth like this anywhere before.
Experiencia positiva: The winter wasn't probably the best time to come. Too much construction, and all of the outdoor spaces inaccessible because of snow, and none of the "live" performances running. Nonetheless, lots of cool animals, and the kids loved it, especially the Manta Rays! It would be nice if there was a schedule online of when different "interesting" activities were taking place, like at what time they feed the polar bears!
Experiencia positiva: Pretty standard experience for what you'd expect at any city aquarium. Too bad the polar bears were relaxing just out of our view. I think they feed them or do a little presentation early in the day. I would try to make it for that.
Experiencia fantástica: Really nice place to visit in Quebec. We spend a lot of time here. Parking is available. There are a lot of attractions and things to see and do for kids there. We visited place in August and weather was good so we had no problem with walking outside. There are some restaurants and playgrounds inside. It is one of the top destinations in Quebec. I definitely recommend to see it and explore it.
Experiencia fantástica: What a great experience. This is set up in a way where it is both outside and indoors. We did this trip in both winter and summer and it is a totally different experience in both seasons. I recommend booking either the last or first tickets to have a more private experience. There is free parking and everything is white accessible - but it is walking intensive, so if you have issues with that please be aware. Otherwise fantastic location for kids and adults. I went as a couple and the jellyfish housing was such a delight!
Experiencia fantástica: Really interesting and beautiful place. We're visited in winter, need to go again in summer. Loved it
Experiencia fantástica: Kids loved it and the yummy sugary treat was a fun touch.
Experiencia fantástica: First visit in March 2025 and it was awesome. Loved the jelly fish exhibit and the polar bears. You can pet all types of animals like starfish and stingrays. You have to buy your tickets online for a time slot. Parking is free and the facilities were clean. Awesome Aquarium!!!
Experiencia fantástica: It was wonderful. Lots of fish. There was an easy to view standing area for kids at each tank, and tpuching the stingrays was super fun too.
Experiencia fantástica: This aquarium blew us away. We could not stop talking about what a great place this was. We felt that all the tanks looked very clean! And all the fish and animals looked happy. Not shoved into tiny tanks. We loved that. Let me tell you something... if you're a jellyfish lover, get ready to be very excited. This is the best assortment of jellyfish I have seen at any aquarium. Many types I had never seen before, either. Absolutely stunning. The outdoor animals were so exciting. The polar bears have a very large enclosure. We were lucky enough to go on a cold snowy day when they came out to play. What a sight. The owls, foxes, and other animals were all so beautiful and well taken care of. We loved the layout of the inside as well. It wraps you around so you see everything. It is a lot of walking - especially outside to the other buildings and bathrooms and restaurant, etc. But we bundled up and were fine. We really enjoyed this place and can't wait to come again.
Experiencia negativa: Parking was very far from the building. When we arrived we found out you can only buy tickets online, not in person and must book your entry time in advance. This was after 10 minute wait for parking and a long walk in the cold. We did not end up going in as we could not get tickets for another hour.
Experiencia fantástica: The Aquarium of Québec City is a fantastic destination for families, especially with kids. Visiting in winter adds a magical touch, with snow-covered outdoor trails and stunning views of the St. Lawrence River. The diverse marine life, including seals, walruses, and polar bears, is even more captivating against the winter backdrop. Interactive exhibits and touch pools allow children to learn about aquatic creatures up close, making it an engaging experience. The friendly, knowledgeable staff provide insightful information, and the clean facilities and well-maintained habitats create a pleasant environment. Overall, a five-star attraction perfect for a winter family day out!
Experiencia positiva: Totally worth a visit. Obviously the jellyfish were a highlight. The unexpected MVP was the colour changing giant octopus taking apart duplo. Only took away a star because it wasn’t obvious what was where and when it’s super cold outside, that matters. Would recommend planning your route while inside!
Experiencia positiva: Nice quiet visit on a Friday afternoon. The place seemed a bit empty with restaurants closed before the posted closing time which was a bummer. The highlight easily were the polar bears and the foxes. Been to the Toronto Zoo multiple times but never seen them so active elsewhere. Aquarium of Quebec has a great big enclosure for them. Made me think of my zoo tycoon days!!. Lots of construction ongoing. Staff were kind and gave information in both French and English. So did all the animal info boards.
Experiencia fantástica: We had so much fun as a family, even in the winter. It was perfect. Memories to share for years :-)
Experiencia fantástica: My daughter loved it so much, parking situation sucked a little bit for now but it's under construction. We loved the jelly fish area and everything else, there was literally almost no one when we visited so that is a plus. Would highly recommend it
Experiencia positiva: A good experience overall ! I loved the section for jellyfish. Kids can really enjoy the place. I didn’t find it interesting at some point.
Experiencia positiva: They are constructing new buildings on the site so parking is a bit far from the entrance. It was fun for the kids, a lot less to see than other bigger aquariums. We loved the jellyfish and stingray building!!
Experiencia fantástica: The two pavilions had some very nice sea creatures and a lot of information on them. The bigger tanks are also very nicely decorated. We went in the winter, so there was quite a bit of snow outside, which was so pretty. It was especially nice to see the artic foxes and polar bears in the snow. For food we tried the beaver tail with maple, so delicious. They were renovating a lot, so i am excited to see the new exhibits in 2026.
Experiencia positiva: We had a nice family visit with 2 kids of 9 and 11. Spend there about 1.5h as it was very cold outside (-18) and you need to walk outside too. After renovation, we will surely be back.
Experiencia fantástica: We went there with the family and it's definitely awesome to do it with kids. So many fishes to see, the only disappointing part is the tunnel, is so short especially if you compare to the one in Toronto. The staff was super friendly even with the power that went out.
Experiencia fantástica: Great place. We loved the polar bears and seals exhibits the most. Please be careful with the elevator though. It does not have a sensor to make the door stop closing while someone is trying to board. I don't feel that is safe given the number of children present. Aside from that, we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Experiencia fantástica: I went there with my wife, it was a good experience, the best part was seeing the polar bear play and also taking a look at various fascinating species of jelly fishes was really amazing too. A must-see for the kids as they would really enjoy it. The aquarium was not too busy either, even though it was a public holiday at the day we went over there.
Experiencia positiva: Really good winter experience. The highlight were the polar bears! You really get to see them up close. Great activity for the family.
Experiencia fantástica: We are from Toronto and we have visited this aquarium twice. It is well sized and has a lot of creatures to show. We were not able to see the polar bear this time which was quite disappointing to the kids.
Experiencia fantástica: Amazing place. Although no polar bear was found. No luck. But rest all I love the place. Found an Arctic fox.
Experiencia fantástica: My family and I really enjoyed visiting this aquarium! There was so much to see so we spent most of the day there. They have many tanks with all kinds of fish and shellfish, big and small, There are also outdoor enclosures with polar bears, seals, etc. We loved the stingray touch tank. You can feed them, which was fun, There were a couple of other touch tanks too. The property and exhibits were clean and well-maintained. The creatures all looked healthy.
Experiencia fantástica: Good place to visit in Qubeq exelent place to visit with childrens
Experiencia fantástica: The aquarium was fantastic. The pole bears were my fave! However, it took us about an hour to find it due to construction and detours.
Experiencia fantástica: Great aquarium with some incredible tanks. Everything was clean and well kept. As an aquarium hobbyist and fish enthusiast, every creature seemed healthy and happy. The lines weren't too long. The parking lot was under construction but I'm sure they will wrap that up in a few months. This is a fantastic aquarium for adults and kids!
Experiencia positiva: Great Expérience, but not lot of attractions to spend a Day. Has Childrens Park and in summer bring lunch to enjoy the river View
Experiencia fantástica: Unbelievable, marvelous place to bring both adults and children, we had a good time....
Experiencia positiva: Nice displays of varying aquatic and animal life. Smaller than I had anticipated, but the interactive displays were fun. My favourite were the jelly fish and the octopus! The lookout of the bridge was cool too.
Experiencia positiva: Went many years ago when the attraction had just opened. This time it was really impressive. Each of the three main pavilions has its theme. The seals and arctic foxes were a surprise. There is a lot of improvement work being done outside (parking & access) and inside mammal environments which reduced the appreciation, but definitely worth the visit when in the city.
Experiencia fantástica: I loved this aquarium. Super fun interactive aquarium. The tour guy was super nice
Experiencia fantástica: Loved this aquarium! It's not an overwhelming crowd, so you can actually take time and enjoy viewing the animals. I'm from Florida in the U.S. and haven't been able to see most of these animals. It was a wonderful experience overall. There are some beautiful views here.
Experiencia fantástica: Amazing place! Well organized and meticulously maintained exhibits. The jellyfish room was more like a vivid show with intricate light and sound effects than a plain aquarium exhibit. My kid loved the pirate ship themed tropical fish exhibit. Definitely worth the time spent to get there.
Experiencia fantástica: I'm not sure why this attraction in Quebec isn't rated higher. I read reviews that marked it down for the catering facilities but I didn't really have an issue. Sure it wasn't very busy when we visited and off -season so not every cafe and food truck was open. That's very normal. You can't pay staff to tend everywhere when you don't get the custom. We had a better than average experience in the cafe and the lady was polite and working very hard to serve multiple people. Construction I'm sure it's majorly harming their business but you can see once it's finished the place will be amazing. They are doing a good job timing construction in the zoo with the road and parking lot condition outside. There were some areas I think need improvement. The cafe building glass windows were dirty with spiders, cobwebs and dirt and we didn't get to see the polar bears because they stayed inside their enclosure in the hot weather. An area inside to view the bears would be nice so we didn't miss out on them, but we understand of course animals do as they please so it's not exactly their fault they weren't outside for our visit. I also enjoyed the outside areas and there was lots of space! Another suggestion would be to add fish to the outside ponds and streams. It's actually an aquarium after all! But there are so many positives. Entry fee was small and the experience of being able to touch starfish, sea anemones and stingray was awesome. The stingrays even come up to you to play! The exhibits were great especially the octopus, jellyfish and seahorses. As long as you take the place to its strengths you won't be disappointed and you can see how much they are trying to improve!
Experiencia fantástica: Always a great place to stop by on a family trip. They're doing some construction at the moment so parking is on my distant lots only but they promised the seals will get a brand new home, which is totally worth it. Our favorites, the jellyfish and the octopus are as good as ever!
Experiencia positiva: If you have already seen the aquarium in Toronto or Boston, then this place is too small for you.. and over crowded. Additionally, there is no polar bear .. not sure why it’s there on their website. There is only 1 small cafeteria which was out of food options during our visit.. ticket counter was out of printer so they charged but there is no physical ticket or receipt provided, which is an inconvenience for a foreign traveler.
