St Augustine Aquarium

This place wasn't exactly what we were expecting. It was all outside and it lacked the refinement of other aquariums we've been to. While we saw fish in a large tank, sharks in a secluded area, and stingrays in another water tank, all the exhibits looked as though they needed to be remodeled and spruced up. We did the guided tour, which lasted about 40 minutes and was quite informative, but given the hot day, standing in the heat trying to listen with little kids was challenging for the group. This is not a place that I would probably return or bring other people to visit but it was nice to check it out on a quiet Sunday afternoon.

We did the snorkeling and it was a lot of fun. The guide who helped us was wonderful. We also did the guided tour. The man who did the tour was very knowledgeable. I would recommend if you go, do the snorkeling.

This lil quaint Aquarium is really cute, when you think of Aquarium you think of a huge massive displays of thousands of gallons of water, not this on it a definitely a small operation but Sydney our personal guide was extremely knowledgeable about marine life answered all questions and was very personable. But this is a great stop for inquisitive little minds

sadly too many boring, uneducated haters leaving negative reviews. I found this to be a wonderful, exceptionally educational experience that supports young scientists sharing the wonders of the ocean. Dan, our guide, is getting his doctorate in I think he said marine biology but regardless, he was a plethora of knowledge and exquisite wit. everyone there was delighted to learn so much in one tour. thank y'all so much!

The staff is so nice and but not really place big at all so tiny and not many aquatic animals to look at it is so boring and not much to see and all they have is gift shop and good for schools and and kids and so don't go here is so boring and not fun at all and the staff is welcoming and kind caring and has lots of knowledge about all the sea creatures they have and very clean and organized and just not that fun and so boring.From Lauren

I found this hidden gem tucked off on State Road 16. It's a smaller aquarium compared to most. The staff will accompany you on a 1-hr guided tour to explain Florida's sea life. It was worth the money.

The staff was nice and very helpful, and the staff that assisted us with the tour did a very good job being engaging. However, there was a lot of gnats flying around and the snorkeling water looked very green and dirty with stuff floating in it. The water may not have been ready, and it could've just been wrong timing; but overall i had a good experience, just the dirty water was questioning and the gnats made it unbearable for me.

Went on a Tuesday morning at 10:30 and was turned away due to a field trip. Nothing was posted anywhere to notify anyone. It is peak spring break week and we drove for 30 minutes with our 2.5 year old who was very excited. Terrible business!

We had a great time at this aquarium. It's small but the staff was so informative and took their time with the kids. Dan was our tour guide and he was great, you could tell he truly loved the job and the animals that were at the aquarium. We did the snorkeling and it was a very cool unique experience. Definitely a fun thing to go do.

Today, we visited the acquarium. Due to time (early) we were the first arrivals so essentially had a private tour with Nick. He was great and I learned a lot about the animals. Though small and not what I expected, it proved to be an enjoyable visit and the added benefit is that it did not take too long to visit. Thank you Nick.
