Their marketing promotes the great lakes and freshwater fishes and the Aquarium delivers on both. If you're going here to see coral reefs and such you will be disappointed, but if you really are interested in the great lakes area in terms of fish and geography of the lakes then you'll be quite pleased. There are areas for the kids... more

First of all, don't pay for the parking. There is free parking right by the playground (at least the whole time we were there nobody was in the ticket booth). If you spend the time to read all about the displays I suppose it's interesting. We had a 3 year old with us so you have to move pretty fast.... more

for the price you are wasting your money, the only sea creature in the aquarium was seahorses and a couple of stingrays, the other fish were from fresh water, i.e. Lakes, it is way overpriced to see trout and an otter, I have seen really great aquariums, but this does not come close, very dissappointed and wish I could get... more

I didn't expect much from an aquarium about lakes. I was pleasantly surprised. Not the greatest place for small chiildren because there is a lot reading. The reading is interesting and the exhibits are well-done. I learned a lot of there was plenty to do. I will be back. more

The aquarium disappointed me. They charge $14.50 for adults and it's about a 20 minute walk through. There were some neat fish like the new seahorse display but that's about it. I guess I was expecting a greater display for the price they were charging. Don't waste your time and see something else. more

I stop by every time I'm in Duluth (at least twice a year). I've even ducked in for just the last half-hour of opening hours (though they were nice enough to stay open another 40 minutes past closing for all remaining visitors). Why? Because it's more than fish in a tank (though there are many fish, including huge sturgeon, and... more

On a trip with some friend we decided to stop at the aquarium. It is a little on the expensive side but worth it. I like to stay at every area more than most, so i see some of the stuff they miss. There are eagles, otters, and my favorite a whole room of different sea-horses. On another level there... more

We have visited several times. Very educational. Live species on display besides fish include; otters, eagle, birds and touch tanks with live stingrays. Right on the shores of Lake Superior Harbor, watch the freighters go by. Admission: Adults: $14.50 Children 3-11: $8.50 Seniors 62+: $11.50 Children under 3 FREE! more

Don't listen to the nagging reviewers, most of whom probably would not like any aquarium. This is a pretty well designed attraction (but it is pricey). There's a wealth of interesting information here, and i (and my kids) learned a great deal about Lake Superior and animal life in the area. Feeding the otters is a huge crowd-pleaser, so don't... more
