They had sold so many tickets for the time slots that the crowds were horrendous. The spaces and hallways between the different rooms were tiny. Everything was one way which is fine, but everything was so cramped you could not see much or move along if you were done. The single line was moving so slowly there were many periods we were just standing in one place in between aquariums and rooms with a 3 year old but not having anything to look at. The design did not allow you to move forward if your child got upset, so there were many screaming kids who were trapped in the small space without a place where parents could go. We took every opportunity of space opening some to move through the rooms, so we probably missed some things, but the small spaces and screaming children did not justify waiting to see them. The price was high and the facilities were small. Even with the number of people we were through in less than an hour.

The tunnel of sharks, stingrays, and turtles is jaw-dropping. You might even see a mermaid swimming among them. Several tanks allow children to crawl underneath and pop their heads up into a bubble. Photo-ops galore!

SEA LIFE is more than just an aquarium, it is an interactive experience for children and families that everyone will love! Our children are 9, 8, and 6, and they had a BLAST! There is so much to see and do, we got to touch baby sharks and starfish, climb around on a ship's hull, and experience so many sea creatures. This was an AWESOME experience, totally worth the price of admission! Give it a try!
