I usually walk here in the early morning (before 7:30) because you can enjoy activities such as cycling, rolling runs, beach sports...there are some weekends here with a car collection show, or on a special day. Ocean Avenue is always busy with lots of music shows and shows..you can come here for a walk or sit in the bar and restaurant...if you like the crowd and the buzz, you will be in a good mood here
The Miami Aquarium is a famous zoo in Miami. The children will definitely like it very much. Our time is very good. It is recommended to play. I really recommend it. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived.
Wow! I see a LOT of OUTSTANDING reviews here! Really? I didn't think so on my visit this past week with my daughter. I give it a 'light smile'? (what kind of rating system is this anyway?)As a really good place to bring elementary students for a school trip, yeah, thumbs up & awesome. (saw many of those!) BUT, for a MAJOR international vacation destination, I would expect a LOT more. In particular, this place is like Sea World lite ... and I mean VERY lite.There are 3 shows here: 1 with Sea Lions and 2 with Dolphins. We went to the Sea Lion show and the Flipper dolphin show. We skipped the main Dolphin show, which perhaps was better (?) But, those 2 shows, while very nice and instructive were rather short and not very intense ... at least compared to shows in Sea World, Disney or Universal (obviously the last two don't do aqua mammal shows, but as shows go.) They were rather instructional, however, so I give ++ points for interested children.There is a 4th stadium, however, on my visit that was shut down. From looking at it, I assume (could be wrong) that they once had a killer whale show, but have stopped that(?) Whatever, it's a significant part of the park offering nothing now.Upon entering there is a pool with flamingos. It's nice, a few dozen birds there who look rather bored. It's ok if not great. Check Flamingo Gardens in Davie (just west of Ft Lauderdale) for a much better experience.The Tropical Fish & Reef Aquariums are a mixed bag ... many no fish, most not impressive. Sea World in Orlando has MUCH better.The Manatee pool is, well, just really sad. No room to move and nothing of interest. Just a swimming pool; they just sit there motionless. Really, seems cruel!Discovery Bay has no turtles, section is empty. Otherwise nice.Also no air conditioning other than gift shop or cafe, so keep that in mind. Summary: good for local kids, parties, etc. Not recommended for general tourists. IMHO.
Very worth a visit, on a small island, you can enjoy the sea and city view. The ticket price is not expensive, it is very suitable for buying annual tickets, because two single tickets are more expensive than annual tickets. Because of the sea, this aquarium has a lot of dolphins, and there are many performances every day. You can get a timetable after entering the door. There are also whales that are difficult to see in the domestic aquarium. Unfortunately, this behemoth is too embarrassed to live in a small pool. Friendship tips, want to sit in the first row of close appreciation, it is best to wear a disposable raincoat, so as not to be splashed by water.
Favorite dolphin and sea lion show here! If there are many people visiting, it is recommended to buy a family package on the official website in advance, which is much cheaper.
