    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.

    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.

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

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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

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

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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

    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.
