Best time to visit
Arrive early on weekdays to avoid school groups, especially mid-morning when crowds are light. Late afternoons after lunch are calmer, and off-season weekdays are the quietest.
Budget tips
Buy timed-entry tickets online for small discounts and skip-the-line convenience; check combo deals with nearby Ripley's attractions. Watch for seasonal promotions, AAA or military discounts, and note that toddlers often have free or reduced admission.

About
快速信息: You can stroll through an acrylic tunnel with sharks and rays gliding overhead, while touch tanks let you feel starfish and horseshoe crabs right under your fingertips. Glowing jelly displays ripple in blue light, and informative diver talks sprinkle surprising tidbits that make the place feel lively rather than just a museum.
亮点: A diver leads two feeding shows each day, hand-feeding sand tiger sharks and cownose rays while the tunnel above fills with bubbles and gawking faces. Press your palm to the touch-pool glass during feeding and you might feel a subtle pressure change as a passing ray brushes by, a quiet, oddly intimate reminder you're sharing the water with creatures that can span a few feet across.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes for walking and standing in the tunnel and galleries.
- Bring a light jacket; the aquarium tends to be cooler than outside air.
- Plan around scheduled feedings listed on the daily board for the best animal activity and photo opportunities.
- Visit on weekday mornings or late afternoons to avoid school groups and long lines.
