I thought it was a great way to spent the morning. We took the bus from the golden zone about 2 dollers for three to ride. We watched all the shows and enjoyed them even though it was not in english. The seal and bird show were the top for my 5 years old. I thought it was great way... more

My family and I enjoyed the aquarium. We watched a scuba diver handle the sharks and turtles in the tank, while a lady explained everything. There was also a sea lion show that was fun. Otherwise we walked around the place. They had crocodiles and lots of birds that you could get pretty close to. The boys, ages 8 and... more

I guess I had better start with a warning--this is not a Vegas style attraction. It is a very simple, very old, very small aquarium/zoo. But we really enjoyed it-- they have a small tank with sharks and a shark meets diver show which thrilled my 6 year old. The seal show was very entertaining (beware if you sit up... more

We had fun at the aquarium. They had a great show for the children with the Sealions. Bony is one of them, and at the end of the show they let the audience kiss him. Everything is in spanish, so brush up before you go or you won't no what's going on more

We went on a Friday. Make sure you check with the aquarium before you go because during the week they do not have the shows at the times listed (seal show, bird show). There is no translation into English for the different fish in the aquariums. more

The unique aspect of this aquarium is that there is a tropical zoo of sorts. They have an indoor, typical aquarium with tropical fish, sharks, rays, eels, ect. But there is a large outdoor tropical zoo that has parrots, crocodiles, fresh water turtles, and more. There are tropical plants from all over the world. The plants are well labeled (in... more

January, 2003. A nice morning diversion that will occupy you for 2 1/2 hours. It opens at 9:30 with 3 shows at 10:30(diver feeds shark), 11:00 (3 smart sea lions), 11:30(parrots that do everything). It's 50 pesos, I had a 20% off coupon so it was about $6 Cnd. The tanks were OK, the sea lions and bird show were... more
