"Loved it!"

We went in with low expectations. I knew this aquarium wasn’t going to be like our fancy aquarium in Tennessee or Georgia. I booked the behind the scenes tour and the snorkeling tour. Everyone was so nice and informative. It is very small and all outdoors. They do love their fish and take good care of them. They provided a wet suit, snorkel, mask, water shoes and life jacket. It’s a small pool area that you swim in but the fish are great. They come right up to you and are very curious. I’m not sure how many they let in at a time but we were the only three this day because two others didn’t show up. That part was even better. They get in the water with you and tell you facts about the fish. There is a changing area and lockers for your things. The staff is there to answer any questions throughout your tour. They also have a small gift shop.

"Nice, but out of the way"

This is a very small, privately owned aquarium accessible via guided tour. The guide was knowledgeable and the tour was interesting enough, including the chance to touch a couple of the animals, but the aquarium is very small. It's is also unfortunately pretty far removed from the rest of the main St. Augustine attractions. I hope they will be able to follow through on their expansion plans to give the rays a new home, enlarge the sharks tank, and build a small indoor space for some smaller exhibits. The small trail out back is a pleasant 5-10 minute stroll around a pond. Overall, likely not worth the effort unless you have a car or are really interested in aquariums. Likely becomes much more interesting if booking a snorkeling experience or trying the zipline course. My Tour Pass only gave me the chance to take the short guided tour.

We had a great time! The tickets are for a 1 hour guided tour. May was our guide and we learned so much! The tour is outdoors but most areas are pretty shaded. Don’t skip out on the nature walk and maze as well!

"Pleasant encounter"

Reviewed April 05, 2025
The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and the environment was peaceful and clean. The nurse sharks and Bella the stingray were our favorites. The only downside was the glare on the windows, which made it difficult to see inside the tanks. Overall, though, we enjoyed the visit.
