My expectations were too high for this attraction. We still managed to have some fun.

Love, love, love this aquarium and their mission! We had no idea what to expect, and, although we thought it might be a more traditional aquarium, we were pleasantly surprised to find it is the home of Winter and Hope from the Dolphin Tale movies! There is so much more!! Highly recommend!!

Ever since I saw Dolphin Tale 1 and 2, the Clearwater Marine Aquarium has been on my bucket list. A recent invitation to attend my husband's 40th High School class reunion from Largo High held at Clearwater Beach prompted me to finally be able to fulfill my dream. This was the best, simplest, most interactive aquarium I have been to although I may be biased because of my love Winter and Hope from the movies. The people who work, intern and volunteer there are among the happiest bunch of people you can imagine but then again, look where they are working and what they are doing. If you want to thoroughly immerse yourself in all the ways man is connecting with the creatures of the sea take the time to spend the day observing and watching. It was a vacation within a vacation.

We learned a great deal and loved being able to interact with some stingrays and turtles in the outdoor pools. A most enjoyable time and a pleasure to finally see the star attractions.

It's more of an elementary school educational field trip.... actually, it was a little Boring....the Dolphin Tale movie is over 10 yrs old..they were suppose to have some of the child actors there, but they have to be Adults by now...Not worth the price

Really not much to see except for Winter and the dolphin training. The facility was really hot and lack of any educational information.

Every thing was good, other than long lines and high prices. Like 3.00 for a coke.

It was extremely fun. Great seeing that there are groups willing to take care of our wildlife.

This is a special aquarium for rescued animals. It is very educational to me and my five year old grandson. It is not a show or entertaining facility. I probably learned more about the Florida sea life here than other places. I hope to return. Priscilla and Jacob.
