Brian MartenMay 14, 2016The 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 GregDecember 31, 2012The 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.
HISTORYNovember 1, 2012This was Miami’s first marine-life attraction when it opened in 1955, as well as the world’s largest one at the time.
. Abdurakhimova .April 15, 2013It'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!!!!
Emiliano ViadaOctober 20, 2015Excellent shows!! All of them, dolphins, killer whale, sea lions, etc. Totally recommendable.
- Otel.comSeptember 19, 2011Take 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 ShapovalenkoOctober 8, 2023Dolphins 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.
@DayngrAugust 7, 2014Free 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.
Marco IllescasMay 8, 2018Shows 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.
Wu-Tang: The Saga ContinuesDecember 9, 2017Mathematics pick! You won't be disappointed with the Miami Seaquarium. Come for the live shows and educational programs.
Sony Mobile WTAFebruary 23, 2011If you’re a fan of visiting aquariums, you won’t be disappointed with the Miami Seaquarium. Come for the live shows and educational programs featuring your favorite sea animals, dolphins & whales.
astrid rodriguezJuly 11, 2013Make 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!!!
Transitions® lensesMay 4, 2012Witness the power, grace and beauty of dolphins performing with a Killer Whale. Enjoy acres of entertainment & exhibits. Take a pic & enter to win a dream vacation! - bit.ly/xzqs7i #seemoresights
Opal GibsonDecember 5, 2013The Flipper Dolphin Show was great...but the Sea Trek Reek Encounter was amazing!
Heather KujawskiDecember 21, 2011Tried 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
Chris GotEmhatinonmeApril 7, 2012Had 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 RevillaAugust 24, 2019Original 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 CAugust 25, 2014Expensive. 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 ParmaAugust 26, 2014If 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.- MasterCardMarch 16, 2012Book with your Wolrd Elite MasterCard & receive discounts off the Sea Trek Reef Encounter, park admission & the dolphin interaction program! See location for details.
Amir FathiAugust 31, 2014I 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 ShapovalenkoOctober 8, 2023Dolphins 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 StakiasJuly 23, 2010nice 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 EriksenFebruary 20, 2019Nice 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.February 8, 2011Don'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 SchoolsFebruary 7, 2012Best place to take the kids! I would suggest parking elsewhere to save money & would advise you to watch the dolphin show :)
Maria D.October 13, 2012Today all teachers get in for free and up to 4 of their guests are 50% off. Park closes at 6 pm
My Miami ConnectionSeptember 1, 2011Swim with the Dolphins a must do! Make a reservation first!http://www.miamiseaquarium.com/dolphin_swim/dolphin_swim.aspCourtesy of esolmiami.com- veronique @ zaptravel.com .August 30, 2013If you've been to Orlando's SeaWorld, you may be disappointed with Miami's version, which is considerably smaller and not as well maintained.
Klára PodobováJune 11, 2014I am gonna swim w seals and dplphins...and my hubby is going to dive- sea trek:))) can't wait!!- Marcelo StenzelNovember 3, 2013The aquarium needs maintenance and more attractions. It is a shadow of Seaworld Orlando.
okzygenMarch 19, 2011Park 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.
Stephan F. RebbeMarch 17, 2010avoid 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.
Jay LMay 24, 2017Not enough space for the animals, show have 1 hour gaps be prepared to spend 6 hours if you want to see all the shows.

"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"
