Excellent use of 1 way travel with the pandemic!Only concern was around the top of the tank, and descending down as people tend to move at their own pace while walking down.

This is a great medium sized aquarium. The central ocean tank was great and the interactive show with scuba divers was well done and very informative. The petting area is fun for children of all ages and the whole aquarium can be comfortably seen and visited in a half day or less. The staff were all friendly and highly accommodating to questions and children. There are multiple areas with interactive games for children to play that have staff staying them and teaching the children as they play. I highly recommend it if you are in Boston.

Great amount of sea creatures, I think there was about five floors to climb and see through giant glass tanks. I had a lovely time, but Im not sure I would go back more than once.

A great family outing with lots of interesting animals and fish to see. Very popular, and a bit expensive. There are a lot of interactive exhibits.

Lots to see in a pretty tight space on the waterfront. Displays spread across multiple levels with a ramp and lifts for access as needed. Central display running the whole height of the building is awesome.

This place is awesome. Visited many times now. The penguins are always adorable, could watch them swim and flap around for hours. They have a few exhibits for kids where they can touch sting rays and other things. Definitely worth checking out if your in Boston.

Beautiful colours and movements of all the sea creatures. Good to get up close and personal with all the fish in the giant central tube. I was worried about the giant turtle until I read that he had been rescued. A good place.

Great family attraction. I have not been to the aquarium in over 30 years and it was like I was there just yesterday. Our 18 month granddaughter just loved it! She was amazed by the penguins, sea turtles and the sea lions. Cant wait to return again

Visited early Saturday morning 10 am. I would only reccomend visiting if you are arriving at 9am for opening. The facility quickly became so congested it wasnt really possible to view the exhibits. When it was time to feed our 9 month old baby it was very complicated to get to the cafeteria area. Overall I dont feel the building layout is able to handle the amount of people.
