It saddens me greatly to see any negative reviews about this fabulous non profit aquarium. Anybody that says they did not get their money's worth, just didn't bother to fully experience everything CMA has to offer. To say it took only 20 minutes to go through is way off track. They have all kinds of entertaining, fun and educational presentations... More

Those reviewers disappointed in the entertainment value were probably expecting a traditional aquarium, which this is not. But there is no need for a traditional aquarium 20 miles from The Florida Aquarium. There IS a need for what CMA does, and I am impressed with what they are doing. We are locals, and I took a group of very thrilled... More

I was hoping to see Winter and other animals throught an underwater aquarium. This is not what happens. You walk around a small area where the animals are in tanks below you. There are not many animals. This is a rehab facility, not a true aquarium. On a good note I was more than happy to buy a ticket to... More

It's a small place but they do a good job. Seeing Winter the dolphin was so cute and I really liked how they incorporated the movie props into the movie.

I'm a big fan of aquariums and this place just doesn't quite measure up. They really rely on the popularity of the dolphin with the mechanical tail to reel people in. But once you get in you're definitely left thinking "was that it?"

My 3 year old son hasn't quit talking about the broken dolphin for 3 months. So when we planned a trip to visit family 2 hours from Clearwater we had to go. I have 14, 9 and 3 year old boys and they enjoyed every bit of it. Take the free boat shuttle to the second exhibit if you want... More

We took our 3 year old grandson here because we thought it would be enough for a child his age - but there was hardly anything there to see - 20 minutes and we were done. Overpriced for what they have. If it was by donation, and it was promoted as a charity, I think it would be a fairer... More

Our daughter wanted to see Winter the dolphin. This was our first stop during our FL vacation and we spent the entire day here. They do presentations on the various animals there and it was fun and educational. We did pay extra for the behind the scenes tour and it didn't feel like it was very much "behind the scenes."...

We saw dolfin tail and the kids just HAD to see winter. The aquarium is just how I had it pictured in the movie. A little run down but very well organized. Staff are incredibly knowledgeable and the kids loved learning about the animals and how they had been rescued. My only complaint was I felt as though I was... More
