The New England Aquarium is a four-floor attraction that offers visitors a diverse array of marine life. While some exhibits were closed for refurbishment, the aquarium still provided an informative and engaging experience. Visitors were able to see a variety of well-cared-for sea creatures, including penguins, stingrays, and seals. The staff was praised for their knowledgeable and helpful nature. Although the cost of admission can be high, especially during peak seasons, the aquarium is a popular destination, particularly for families, and offers free outdoor shows. Overall, the New England Aquarium is a well-maintained and enjoyable attraction, though the closure of certain exhibits may impact the overall experience for some visitors.
Always a great time! Staff is so pleasant and happy to answer questions about their animals.

Cool aquarium! Informative and a good variety of sea life. I was happy to see that it looked like the sea creatures were all well taken care of. When we went the penguin exhibit was closed for maintenance, but there was a discount for this. A nice aquarium to spend your time at.
