This was a fun aquarium to visit! It has a beautiful large fish tank, sea turtles, jellyfish, and a nice variety of marine life to see. While it's on the smaller side, it's very well done and makes for an enjoyable visit.
I'd especially recommend it for families with young kids—they'll have a great time exploring and seeing all the animals. If you're looking for a huge aquarium, you may want to visit a larger one, but for a relaxing outing, this is definitely worth checking out.
It wasn't worth almost $30 a person! That's ridiculous it's not as big as what you would think $30 would be. Staff was friendly and the place was pretty but just not worth it to get through in about 20 minutes!

My kids and I had a great experience at the sea life aquarium. They love seeing all the sea creatures, especially when they get to touch the sea creature and start fish. They had so much fun. Definitely recommend!

I love this aquarium! The exhibits are lovely and there’s a nice tank in the entryway that you can view for free. The behind the scenes tour was very interesting and the guide was friendly and engaging. Visiting is always a highlight of my trips to Great Lakes Crossing.
We came for the animal crossing event and left utterly disappointed.
To start, we had a party of 6, but was told we would only be given one poster and one stamp card per group. Only one member out of our entire party was able to collect stamps and keep the poster.
Regarding the Animal Crossing aspect, there were only about 5 small character boards to take photos with. Additionally, the aquarium advertised there would be character meet and greets, but there was only one character out of the entire game available to take photos. For this, I would have never paid $24 for this experience.
In addition, the aquarium was small and cramped. We reserved our entry time to be right at 10 am opening, but it seems like reservations do not help limit capacity entry. We had a line form at 10 am and was also accompanied by a school trip as well.
The sea animals were nice to see, but overall I would not recommend anyone to visit for the Animal Crossing event or this aquarium in general. It was a complete waste of money and time.
