Great place to spend a few hours with the family, viewing the beautiful aquatic life we share this earth with. Clean, neat, and very up-to-date on all the protection and prevention measures against Covid. This is a place where unlike others you will still have a good time while staying safe.

It was a cold day. Lots to see and play with. What a crowd. We moved with the flow all 4 of us. My pictures turned out wonderful. The price was a perfect deal, B1G1free! It was worth the drive. Thank you!

The Marina used to be immaculate. I wouldnt pay 5,000 a season to dock a boat there next to all thar trash trapped in there behind the docks. All you see is trash an slime along the walk up to getting the the gate. Also, the parkingot should be police monitored. Too easy to get robbed at night. Besides that beautiful views !

The waterfront itself was dirty...there was trash all over in the water including chairs from the aquarium...it was disappointing to say the least. However, the battleship museum, the aquarium and the seaport museum were all quite lovely. Overall I enjoyed my trip here but I do wish people cared a bit more about the project in our waterways.

It was a fun surprise when we went to see the penguins. Our toddlers B-lined for the park. They had soft floor & 5-6 animals to climb & slide. A few raised padded paths to run. It would have been a fantastic idea if it was a little bigger with a few more animals to climb & another raised path.It feels toddler intended but several school age kids playing so we left

The waterfront has so many different things to do and you can walk along the river to access them all. Perfect for kids but also great for adults.

Impulsed by our curiosity after visiting the Adventure Aquarium , we decided to walk a few hundred feet towards the Battleship New Jersey. It did turn out to be a a great experience. The view is fantastic and we learned a lot on such a short period of time.If you go to the Adventure Aquarium in Camden NJ, you should consider taking the ferry or walking towards this beautiful place.

It was a really fun time with really great sights on the Delaware. In the way to Philly they even do a detour to show you the U.S.S. New Jersey and some other cool ships. It is pretty crowded though and I feel like this would be less of a problem if they actual checked peoples tickets

Review №46

Nice views of the Delaware River and Philadelphia skyline are to be found in spades. However, there are no real facilities or places to eat, shop, hang out, etc. which sadly holds the park back from being a good family destination. I work on the waterfront, so I can appreciate the views, but Im also inches away from the facilities at my office.

Review №48

What can I say but before you even enter this aquarium you start off with a breathe taking view of the City Skyline. Once in the aquarium there is plenty of informative info on the different sea life. I have to say anywhere you take your child and have just as much fun as them is a win-win in my book. If you go you wont be disappointed.

Beautiful, tranquil & serene. That is if you like watching birds, boats, ships & of course people watching. Bring a book or lunch & enjoy. There are garbage receptacles everywhere so theres no excuse for being a slob! Keep this place clean its amazing!

Aquarium is beautiful! I went as a chaperone for my sons class field trip, and the kids absolutely loved it! The exhibits are large enough for many children (and adults) to view together. The entire place is clean, comfortable, and well designed. There are plenty of places to sit and walkways are large enough for the large volume of people in the space. There are lots of exhibits where you can interact with and touch sea creatures (starfish, sting rays, sharks, and more). The kids (and my) favorite part was the Shark Tunnel and the Shark Bridge. The tunnel allows you to walk underwater and have sharks swim above and around you. The bridge is a durable, heavy duty rope net bridge over the shark tank, allowing you to see the sharks swimming under you. Overall, a very exciting trip that I would highly recommend.

They need to do better about trash being cleaned up or garbage cans being more frequently & trash in the water is not a pretty sight theres a lot of it ! Otherwise its looking good !night time walks are nice !

Some would saw this is geared towards little kids but I had just as much fun as my son. The woman on their 800# told me it usually takes 2 hours. That is wrong! If your like us and read everything, touch everything take your time eating...then be there when the doors open! You will have so much fun. Buy tickets online with food vouchers if you can but still expect to spend at least fifty bucks AND bring some cash for the live feeds. 4 bucks to feed the sting Rays a sardene cut in half.

Visited the aquarium. The kids enjoyed themselves and they had a variety of things to see. The staff was friendly and informative as well. However, the waterfront view was disgusting. The water is greenish-brown and looks like it may be hiding Godzilla. We have to do better with preserving our resources NJ.
