on Judys Book Dec 18, 2007I was not impressed by this aquarium. The exhibits were nice and informative and fish well taken care of. I was glad I didn't pay the full admission price. I expected a full aquarium like I had seen when I lived in Boston.... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 01, 2007Let me qualify the title of my review by saying that this is great aquarium and not some over done theme park called Sea World. You won't get a big dolphin shows or a shamu show because the AoP does not make their animals... (more)

on Yahoo Oct 04, 2007We visited a year ago. Have visited aquariums in OR & WA. This aquarium was excellent. We took our Grandaughter & spent over 3 hours in the aquarium and am sure we only saw 1/3 of the species. It was fun, informative and... (more)

on Yahoo Aug 31, 2007With the name "Aquarium of the Pacific" one would think it would be huge. However once you pay the large fee to enter you'll be shocked at how small it is. The reef tanks are almost as nice as a upscale seafood resturant.... (more)

on Yahoo Nov 11, 2006Pricey, but can be fun.: I've been really hard on the AofP, but it IS a really BIG aquarium with a LOT of interesting things. Now the changing displays (like the current Dazzling and Dangerous) are often pretty lame... (more)
