    To get to the Seaquarium on the land, you have to go over the Rickenbacker toll bridge. We haven't been here since the mid 60s. My Miami SIL is a big aquarium fan, and I think my grandchildren go here fairly often. Annual passes are available.

    Miami Seaquarium opens at 9:30am every day.

    From their website: "Food outlets and gift shops are available throughout the park. Admission ticket booths and in-park shops gladly accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express cards."

    OPERATING HOURS • 9:30am - 6:00pm

    Its a little dated and quite expensive, still the Miami Seaquarium has a decent collection of marine exhibits and shows. Very nice Mantee exhibit.

    In the Miami Seaqarium (no no typo this time). You can find fish..and dolphins...

    If you ever drove by it when going over the Rickenbacker Causeway, you maybe thinking it's smaller then it is in reality. They have an great outside basin with dolphins which looks more natural then what i was used to in Aquariums.

    When you enter the park and you follow the show schedule you will be led through the park and can easily spent a morning or afternoon going to all shows. But outside the show there are more things to see, it's well worth the $ 23,95 admission, you can even get $2 off when you buy your tickets online at http://miamiseaquarium.com/.

    Seaquarium: DONT GO
  • By anti_miamiseaquarium on January 7, 2007
  • Miami Page by anti_miamiseaquarium
  • i refuse to go to the miami seaquarium. it has hundreds of health and fire hazords. and the real EXPOSED truth:

    - the "flipper show", is not true, and is in know way educational. infact, the REAL FLIPPER died nearly 30 YEARS AGO.

    - every animal is exploited

    - the park is just filthy, and the underwater viewing areas are covered in salt, and there are countless leaks.

    - LOLITA IS SUFFERING. THE SHOW IS IN NO WAY EDUCATIONAL, UNLESS YOU WANT TO TEACH YOUR CHILDREN ON HOW TO KILL ANIMALS, MAKE THEM SUFFER, AND DEPRIVE THEM OF THERE BEAUTY.

    - LOLITA'S TANK IS ILLEGAL! in most parts of the tank, if lolita put the tip of her nose against the bottom of the pool, 12 FEET OF HER WOULD STICK OUT IN THE AIR! and at the tanks deepest, HER TAIL DRAGS AGAINST THE BOTTOM.

    thank you, and i hope you enjoy your visit at the Miami Seaprison - Oops!... I... I meant Miami Seaquarium!

    I would definitely not recommend a visit to the aquarium. Its old and boring. Specially if you have gone to good ones in Australia and even places like chicago. This seems like a drab. Its $ 21 to get in and I will definitely not recommend it to anyone.

    Seaquarium: Sickening SeaQuarium!

    Small Pool for a Whale at
    Miami SeaQuarium!
    by TakeMeSomeWhere
    The Miami SeaQuarium is a horrible place! My family went there earlier this summer... we were sickened and saddened. The animals were kept in terrible conditions.

    The huge killer whale, Lolita, was kept in a shallow pool the size of a YMCA swimming pool! The dolphins were kept in old, outdated-looking tanks, as were the fish and the parrots had pulled their feathers out. The aquarium itself had very little to do and it lacked any sort of educational value for children (or adults). The Miami SeaQuarium is a park past its time. The food is gross and salty, the parking and admission is outrageously expensive, and there is hardly any shade awnings to sit under! The animal shows were depressing. Teenaged animal trainers pranced out on stage and made these lethargic animals flip around... it wasn't even worth taking a family picture in the park!

    Don't bother with Seaquarium. It's a waste of money and time! Horrible place, I'd say. My family, including young children and an elderly couple, agree. We enjoyed visiting the beach much more. And... in fact, we saw wild dolphins at the beach! They looked better than the caged ones at the SeaQuarium!
