The killer whale show was awesome. This is a fantastic place for kids and adults alike. Also try a hot dog from Pinks in the park , very good.

Tennis Greg

The whale show is the best by far! If your kids wanna do the rides etc be sure and get it in before 5pm We went to the 4 main shows then were disappointed to discover all rides had closed.

HISTORY

This was Miami’s first marine-life attraction when it opened in 1955, as well as the world’s largest one at the time.

It's amazing place in Miami! I advise to visit it after you have arrived !! If you have children's or you are alone or with a friended it doesn't matter just go! You'll enjoy it!!!!

If you want to stay dry, avoid the first 4 stadium rows at the Killer Whale and Dolphin Show, where the pacific white-sided dolphins and Lolita the killer whale focus their back-flops and splashing. Read more

Excellent shows!! All of them, dolphins, killer whale, sea lions, etc. Totally recommendable.

Take the kids to this awesome oceanarium, where you can meet learn about and swim with dolphins, and see killer whales, dolphins, manatees , sea turtles , and lots of more amazing marine life .

Denis Shapovalenko

Dolphins and other animals are dying here, it is a graveyard and a murderhouse. It must be closed and never exist. There is no love to animals here at all, just death for entertainment.

@Dayngr

Free willy! Ok, seriously, this is the place of my childhood but now that I'm an adult it's so sad to see the conditions these mammals live in. Time to set these beauties free or retire them.

Miami.com

For an additional fee, you can make your visit even more memorable by swimming with the dolphins in a two-hour program led by marine training staff . Read more

Marco Illescas

Shows are kinda slow as the trainers don’t push the animals to perform and they don’t stress them out, considering the space where they are held is small I think that’s good, thank the opportunity.

Make sure to arrive 15 minutes prior to the first show you plan on attending otherwise you will be unable to get in as it fills out very quickly during summer time!!!

Tried to use 1st time check in special and they said I needed it on paper. Not sure what that is. But other than that it's great. I love the shows and it's always a good time

Opal Gibson

The Flipper Dolphin Show was great...but the Sea Trek Reek Encounter was amazing!

Chris GotEmhatinonme

Had a great time. Enjoyed the animals and the wildlife present that wasn't part of the exhibits . Will go again. Food and drinks way over priced tho!!!

Richard Revilla

Original piece of Miami and hasn't changed. Give yourself about 2 not much else to do as park is very small. Not Sea World

James C

Expensive. But all the shows are included need to make a day out of it to get the money's worth but there are tons of discounts . Really nice manatee exhibit .

Debra Parma

If you plan on doing any animal encounters, just consider how long you're going to be standing around in a hot wet suit in 90 degree weather.

MasterCard

Book with your Wolrd Elite MasterCard & receive discounts off the Sea Trek Reef Encounter, park admission & the dolphin interaction program! See location for details.

I hope people start realizing what they are supporting by visiting this facility. Miami Seaquarium has been keeping these animals in captivity for their benefit and growth, which is not acceptable.

Denis Shapovalenko

Dolphins are dying here, it is a graveyard and a murderhouse. It must be closed and never exist. They don’t even allow dogs on parking lot , there is no love to animals here at all, just death.

Demetrios Stakias

nice to visit, but adventure aquarium in camden NJ was better... i did like the pacific dolphin and killer whale show and the sea lions were precious. plus the talking birds and baby alligators . wif

Steinar Eriksen

Nice park with educational shows about the animals. The Manatee Cafe is old and worned out. Food did taste awful. We had grilled chicken and it was heated in the microwave.

Katie H.

Don't park at the aquarium , it's 8 dollars; park at the public lot right before it for free. It is expensive , but I enjoyed seeing animals I haven't seen at east coast aquariums .

Small Fry Schools

Best place to take the kids! I would suggest parking elsewhere to save money & would advise you to watch the dolphin show :)

Wyki Tyson

The staff is phenomenal. Swam with the Dolphins & loved it!

Maria D.

Today all teachers get in for free and up to 4 of their guests are 50% off. Park closes at 6 pm

Marina Molina

Better interaction with animals than Sea world. Beautiful rescue program.

My Miami Connection

Swim with the Dolphins a must do! Make a reservation first!http://www.miamiseaquarium.com/dolphin_swim/dolphin_swim.aspCourtesy of esolmiami.com

If you've been to Orlando's SeaWorld, you may be disappointed with Miami's version, which is considerably smaller and not as well maintained.

So much fun. The new swim with the seal program is a blast.

Klára Podobová

I am gonna swim w seals and dplphins...and my hubby is going to dive- sea trek :))) can't wait!!

Stephan F. Rebbe

avoid this place! the best years of this aquarium are over. the show with the orca as well as the dolphin show were entertaining and professional but forget the rest.

Marcelo Stenzel

The aquarium needs maintenance and more attractions . It is a shadow of Seaworld Orlando.

okzygen

Park opens at 9:30AM. If you get here 15-20 minutes before the park opens, you can park for free! Worked for me, but YMMV.

SINthia

2/3/13: buy a day entrance get an annual pass for free. For residents only.

Jay L

Not enough space for the animals, show have 1 hour gaps be prepared to spend 6 hours if you want to see all the shows.

Lama

Don’t miss the diving experience ????

Kids love this place. The stingray feeding is the best interaction so far. All the other interactions are very expensive. Lines to get a Piña colada or margarita are slow. About 20 minutes - George
