Our friend highly recommended visiting the Aquarium during our visit to Vancouver. Compared to the New England Aquarium, I somehow prefer this one. Probably because it was less crowded. In terms of fish, mammals and other animals too (NEA's big and almost only attraction was the huge tank with all kinds of fish). There's even a small forest where you... more

Difficult to write a favorable review after having visited other great Aquariums like the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was actually DISTURBING to see how small some of the areas were for the animals like the SEA OTTERS more

It's small and crowded, and basically like every other aquarium you will visit in North America; however, they do have the Beluga's, so that is something worth seeing. more

I'm also not impressed with the cramped size of the aquarium for both the animals/mammals and the visitors. There are long lines and waits. If you can get beyond this the site itself is really quite interesting with the baby beluga and mother, the dolphins, seals, sea lions.

The price wasn't bad when i attended and they have student prices which is... more

This aquarium has quite a range of species, and the most popular attraction is the beluga whale, though I wasn't quite sure if their tank should have been larger, though the show was quite informative. The other species were really good to see, and it was entertaining watching sea lions spitting at people! It was a good day out and... more

This is a very good aquarium, lots of interesting exhibits, well worth spending half a day or more. We booked for the sea otter tour which was really worth it, after learning more about these creatures, we got to go and actually feed them pretty close up which was amazing. more

We visited the Aquarium because of the Beluga Whales, its just a fantastic place and a definate attraction to visit with the whole family. We thoroughly enjoyed the day there. The Beluga Whales are something else, there are also Dolphins, Sea Otters, Seals and many more animals that we did not expect to see. There are all the aquariums with... more
