What People Are Saying About Miami Seaquarium
Featured Review

In Short – Home to Lolita the Killer Whale, Salty the Sea Lion and dozens of dolphins, the Miami Seaquarium features performing marine mammals and offers an educational experience as well. Visitors can check out the reef aquarium with its 750,000-gallon saltwater tank, which is teeming with fish of every size, shape and color. Inside, a diver swims around, hand-feeding the residents, including groupers, loggerhead turtles and moray eels.
Editor's Tips
- Parking:
- Parking in the Seaquarium's lot costs $7, but it's the best option for those who don't want a long hike to the entrance.
- Know Before You Go:
- The newly remodeled Dolphin Harbor offers the opportunity to swim with dolphins, but it's not cheap at $189 for adults. Despite the sticker shock, it books quickly so reserve your spot ahead of time.
- Save Money:
- Coming back again? An annual pass is just $39.95 ($32.95 for children), just a few bucks more than a one-day ticket. You can upgrade your daily ticket on the way out.

by JLaaee at Citysearch
I had the best time at the park :) We got some great savings and they had a special show going on for Xmas with the what, she even had a hat. The kids loved it and can't stop talking about all the fun they had. We really want to do the swimming with the dolphins and they now have this tank swim thing and a rope walking course, FUN! Can't wait to go back. Also, they rehabilitate manatees there, how awesome!

PLEASE DO NO VISIT THIS PRISON
by MARTHA777 at Citysearch
ANIMALS ! that were ripped from their home and family ! stuck in a bathtub their whole lives performing tricks that they do not want to do ! just so seaworld could make money of them they get nothing ! just work work work !!!!!! In the wild, orcas work cooperatively, form complex relationships, communicate using distinct dialects, and swim up to 100 miles every day. Their life at SeaWorld deprives them of everything that is natural and important to them. They are limited to small, barren concrete tanks and are forced to perform stupid tricks in exchange for dead fish. the water in thesse tanks are full of chemicals nothing natural about that !!!!! IMAGINE YOUR LIFE STUCK IN BATHTUB SWALLOWING CHEMICALS !!!!!! FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE Tilikum shouldngt have just killed one trainer he should of killed all of them ! HE IS GOING TO BE PUT DOWN ANYWAYS MIGHT AS WELL . 8( THE ONLY THING HE DID WRONG WAS BEING CAPTURED BY THESE PEOPLE !!!!! THE HUNGRY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD HAVE THIE OWN PEOPLE TO FIGHT FOR THEM ! ! ! ! ANIMALS NEEDS US ALSO ! CLOSE DOWN THIS PLACE ITS OLD ! AND FALLING APART !!!!! DO NOT SUPPORT THESE PEOPLE !!!!!!!!
PLEASE WATCH

Great time Great Savings!
by OssBee at Citysearch
I went to the park and they had amazing savings, a give 4 and get 40% off. They are having something else soon. If you are not a Miami resident, look first for savings, there are lots. If you are a Miami resident, get the year pass. I had a blast with my friend and I want to go back soon. Good shows!

Pretty good trip
by buds4live at Citysearch
The park is not huge, its not Disney. So go open minded and not with the idea that you are going to step into sea world. This is not sea world and if you are looking for something like that just go up to Orlando. This park is really cute, they have been around for a long time and the park is well kept. They have displays of different fish live. You can see the dolphins swimming around and its pretty cool to see them swimming when a show is going on. The shows are the main attraction/thing here! So make sure you call ahead to get the full schedule so you don't miss anything. They have a good variety of food... I like that it's a nice relaxing park and I'm not there for 10 hours, four hours is pretty much the most you will be here, which is perfect for anyone who wants to explore the city more. Overall, I really liked this cute place.
