Georgia Aquarium

I usually go early ! I recently visited this aquarium and was really impressed by how large the place was! There was so much to see—it felt like every turn led to a new section with different kinds of sea life. The variety of fish was incredible, from colorful tropical species to massive tanks with sharks and rays. It’s a great spot to spend a few hours, and it never felt overcrowded because of the spacious layout. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy marine life!

The entrance fee to the aquarium was a bit steep. There was a long line in October 2024 so if you are planning on visiting around that month, it might be a good idea to purchase tickets in advance. There were a number of shows (sea lion, dolphin) that had the show times sold out the day of so make sure you get those in advance. The aquarium was big and had a bunch of different sections and floors.

This was one of the main points of my trip to Georgia and I am very disappointed. All of the staff that I interacted with were very nice and knowledgeable. There were not nearly as many exhibits as I was expecting for all the hype around this place. For $60 a person, I was extremely underwhelmed. I was surprised with how clean the place was considering how many people visit every day. Parking wasn't too bad and I was able park there for a 12 hour day for 25$, AND the parking garage didn't smell like pee. Huge plus. Glad I experienced it, but will not be back.

My sister, my niece and I had a wonderful experience at the Georgia Aquarium today. All the views of every Aquarium was amazing and beautiful. The prices of everything was very high and it was worth the memories. Most of the employees very nice and friendly except for one employee that work the Dippin Dots Ice cream section. I was holding my niece candy in my hand she was staring at me in a negative way and she was wondering did paid for it. I had got me some dippin dots ice cream and after I had paid for it. She had asked me did I needed a spoon. At first I didn’t understand what she was saying because she have a different accent. I thought she said Did I need a spoon and I told her yeah and she didn’t give it to me at first, but when I ask her for a spoon, she said I ask you did you how do you spoon and you said yes and I told her I thought she said I needed a spoon. I know that it is not a big deal but it’s the way she said it like with an attitude bothered me. I did not argue with her because I’m a Christian and I want to do the right thing. It did made me upset, but I did not let her rudeness ruin the rest of my day. I just hope that she check her attitude when she dealing with customers. I just saying. Other than that, I still had a wonderful time at the aquarium, and I would like to go back again in the near future.

Incredible. I did the Beluga experience, and I dove in the whale shark tank. Both were even better than I expected. The dive was expensive and worth every penny. They took great care of my family while I was diving and made sure that they were in place to see me diving in the tank. A definite must do!!
