    Don't go on the weekends if you can help it. Too crowded to fully enjoy the exhibits.

    If you are a diver you need to check out the "Journey with the Gentle Giant" program. Where else can you five with hammerheads, groupers and whale sharks.

    Amazing place. Best part were the whale sharks - incredible and huge. Plus the ability to "walk under water" in several areas. Read more

    Check out the Planet Shark exhibit upstairs. There is an additional cost, but it is definitely worth it.

    Got small kids/babies? Use the family bathrooms located on the second floor near the ballroom. There's even a baby changing/nursing room.

    Make sure to wash your hand thourghly after touching the fish. If you don't, your asking for trouble later!

    The ticket line seemed long but only took like 15 minutes--but you could save yourself 15 minutes by buying them ahead of time online or from the ticket machines in front of the building.

    Do not bring a fishing pole. They won't let you take it into the aquarium.

    Paid $30 per ticket and feel that it was not worth it. I was looking forward to coming here as it's the world's largest aquarium and they have Beluga whales, but was disappointed.

    The dolphin show is less an exhibition of trained dolphins and more like a musical with some dolphin tricks thrown in.

    Maybe it was an off day, but our visit wasn't good. Loud music inside, rude people at security, and very poor signage when it came to accessible ramps. We ended up all over the place.
