Nicely done. Special exhibits. Usual aquarium, so unless you really like them, you may not want to spend the money. Very, very small snack bar so don't plan to eat here unless you have no where else to go.all that being said it was clean, and nicely kept.

This aquarium is located right next to the Fort Sumter tour. A free shuttle bus takes you there from the visitors center. The aquarium is focused on South Carolina, and it does a good job. There are nice areas for the kids as well. The gift shop is quite nice. The main concern here is price. The price was listed... More

If you're looking for a huge shark tank, this is not the place. The aquarium has only species found in SC. It divides the state into regions, from the mountains to the sea and devotes a section of the museum to each. There is a nice touchpool for the kids.

Heard a lot of good things about this place, my local aquarium was bigger than this and I was very surprised by that! It was nice But it was just like any other aquarium. The view outside was great and the outside exhibits were nice. The building was nice as well. We enjoyed ourself but really expected more.

This aquarium is small compared to other aquariums, but the theme is different from most, too. This aquarium features the plants and animals native to the four regions of the state. The views of the river and Ravanel Bridge are fantastic, too. Plan to stay at least two hours.

I really enjoyed our visit to the aquarium, interesting exhibits. Great views of the river and bridge from inside the museum.

Big waist of money in south carolina it is smaller than it looks you can see more by going to the beach and that is free in most places and much more fun I wouldn't recommend it to someone I didn't like

Even after purchasing our tickets at the Visitors' Center and getting over $3 off the regular admission, it was still overpriced in our opinion. Signage at entrance leaves alot to be desired as...

First, it was too expensive: $55 for two adults; $6 off for being seniors. We caught a show in a two story aquarium involving a guide outside and a diver inside. Only so-so. I guess we (the audience) was not very responsive or inquisitive. The layout was odd and the displays were pretty boring. We didn't think it was worth... More
