The Florida Aquarium, Tampa

The Tampa Aquarium has really upped their game, having been many years since we last visited. Great galleries covering just about every kind of fish and living creature in and around the Gulf. Never have seen so many people there at once, plenty of room and did not feel crowded. Bathrooms were clean, as was the entire building. Parking can be a bit difficult, best to park in the ramp across the street and walk a few 100 feet. We had a wonderful time and will visit again soon.

Awesome experience at the aquarium! Great for young children. I would recommend that you purchase the annual pass if your a local. After paying for parking and tickets it’s only 20 dollars more to become an annual member. With the annual membership you get free parking. You have to purchase your membership before you come and register your car so you can take advantage of the free parking. Facility is very well maintained with a splash zone for kids and lots of hands on exhibits.
