Amazing
Posted by HollywoodEditor on 11/12/2009
I've been to the Monterey Aquarium and many others, but this one is by far the best. It's enormous and you feel the animals have space, unlike other aquariums. The belugas are mesmerizing to watch, very tranquil.

Good Quality, Expensive food
Posted by JonasRichards on 09/09/2009
Being able to touch the rays and the sharks in multiple pools was very cool. The many different areas were able to keep me entertained for quite some time. However if you plan on eating there bring plenty of cash. While ordering I felt like I was personally keeping one of the whales alive with how much I paid for a small meal. Only about four hours are required to see the entire aquarium, that is even with frequent stops to read about each animal. The dolphin display wasn't finished when I went, but it looked like it was going to be phenomenal.

The World's Largest Aquarium????
Posted by greeneyz4u on 07/20/2009
First off, I cannot believe that this is the world's largest aquarium. I have been to other aquariums and they seemed much larger than this one. We went this past Saturday (07/18/09) for the first and last time. We luckily had purchased advanced tickets online otherwise we would have had to wait in line for three hours (it was 11:00 we we arrived and the next available tickets were at 2:00.) The experience was horrible. There were at a minimum 500 people there which meant that you could barely walk anywhere without being pushed into someone. We saw very little animals due to the number of people crowding in to see them as well. We also went to see the Titantic exhibit which was also very disappointing as pictures could not be taken. I thought that the exhibit would have more than it did. The highlight of the experience was receiving the boarding pass onto the Titantic and discovering whether or not "you" lived or died at the end. I definitely do not think that the Titantic exhibit should have been an additional fee though. We will not be back to this aquarium. Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies is much better and not nearly as crowded. I would recommend it to anyone!

Spectacular
Posted by coast2coast on 09/12/2008
Wonderfully done. The Georgia Aquarium is the largest in the world -- and probably the best. Even the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California pales in comparison. So few things seem to equally awe little children and people of all ages, but this aquarium thrills everyone. Of all the exhibits, the beluga whales are the most calming. Perhaps the creepiest tank -- although it oddly also gets a lot of chuckles -- is the piranhas'. They eerily stare at you while in an orderly formation, like they're just... waiting.

enjoyed it before we got there

we planned out visit to the aquarium and to six flags for a weekend. the weather didnt agree with six flags on saturday and we were planning on the aquarium on sunday so when i called to change i spoke to a very friendly lady and she said i could call her back personally and get it changed the day before. the weather was still going to be bad for saturday and i called her back and she changed it right away. i already knew we would get great service at the aquarium. when we got there we just walked right up and got our tickets and went right in.friendly workers the whole way. there to take a picture for you if you need it and help you find your way. the exhibits were amazing. a few were under construction but i guess thats normal. its better to go in the morning on the weekends before everyone starts arriving you can walk through most of it without a lot of people.educational and fascinating speeches are giving in some areas like the beluga whales and whale sharks. all in all an excellent place and great experience.

Fish and more fish
Posted by bettycd on 11/12/2007
It's beautiful, a great one-time pricey visit. The Monterey Aquarium is way bigger with more exhibits, but if you are in Atlanta- this is the only Aquarium to go to.

Aqaurium

We really enjoyed the wonderful display of sea life. We thought it was a little pricy for the amount of displays, and I would put Chicago's Aquarium a slight notch higher. Our parking was dreadful!!!
