Ripley's Aquarium Feeding Frenzy

We had a fantastic experience at the restaurant. However, I think they need to improve their access. We ended up waiting in a long line with about 40 other people before we realized we could just walk in since we had already purchased tickets. It wasn't until someone opened the door that we noticed a sign indicating that ticket holders could enter directly. The wait was a bit disorganized, as people were still figuring things out. But once we made it up the ramp, everything went smoothly! We enjoyed a lovely time with the family and recommend allowing 1.5 to 2 hours for your visit. We purchased a combo ticket for this location along with two other attractions for $225. Have a great time!

By far, this is the BEST aquarium I've visited! There are numerous diverse exhibits and plenty of interactive areas to explore, making it perfect for visitors of all ages. We decided to splurge a bit on the glass-bottom boat ride over the shark tank, and it was absolutely worth it. The guides added a ton of fun to the experience, and it was incredible to see sharks, stingrays, and sea turtles swimming right beneath us!

A fantastic spot to explore on a rainy or cold day, complete with a wonderful playground where children can play safely! At one point, my daughter wandered off, and the staff was incredibly quick and helpful in helping us locate her. The boat ride is definitely worth the extra $12— the guys running it have some fascinating stories about the hundreds of fish in the tank.

Very entertaining and informative! Children love the different sea lifes that are on the strange side. There was a mermaid show that was different. The place is like a cyclone in shape with every corner. Jellyfish petting and the charming Penguin Parade were two of my highlights, and my son loved the multilevel playground!

Took the family for a school field trip. Had lots of fun. The information about the different creatures was well displayed making it easy to learn. The two different levels to the playground are conveniently located for rest points where the kids could burn off some energy before continuing on. Other features we enjoyed where the shark tunnel, penguin parade, and dive show. Near the end of the aquarium there's a little food court. Prices are high but that was that was be expected. Its $4 just for an order of fries and $3 for a corn dog or hot dog and those where the cheapest items on the menu. Despite the prices the food was good and it was a convention place to stop for a quick bite before the long drive home since we didn't want to stop elsewhere. The whole family enjoyed being able to watch the sting rays in the giant aquarium next to the food court.
