I have been to both a corporate party here and also a wedding. Very cool concept and nice to be able to check out the sea life without many people around. Super helpful if you are having a wedding where kids are invited. My nephew had a great time checking everything out while photos were being taken and people were... More

The Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach opened to the public in 1998, and my wife and I have been visiting ever since! When you walk in, you are greeted by a huge hanging replica of the Blue Whale (the biggest animal on Earth). One of our favourite exhibits is the Northern Pacific Gallery! it features a playful pair... More

The place was full of a ton of cool aquarium exhibits! Also, it was big enough to make it feel like your saw a lot of stuff and not too big that you'll be dead tired afterwards. Overall really nice and fun.

The Aquarium of the Pacific was a wonderfully instructive experience for our party of a 5 and a 9- year old with two grandparents. There were many "volunteens" and other docents to explain away the many exhibits. Different aspects of the sea were put together in common groupings and in beautiful exhibits. As in many most good aquariums, there were... More

As divers we were wondering how much we would enjoy this aquarium but it is really very well done with lots of things to see, do and touch. Not a cheap day out but well worth the $45 entry fee

Perfect for my two-year-old nephew and my 70-ish parents. And I got to touch sharks and a ray! Coupons available (pick up tickets at Ralphs) for discounted entry.

This is another "must visit" each time our grandkids come. We have visited other aquariums from Chicago to Seattle -- and believe this to be the best. We must thank the LB Convention Center mgr. for getting us started. Now some of our family members have annual memberships.

I would think going to see an Aquarium on the Pacific Ocean, we could see some whales and dolphins but not here you won't. Try Chicago if that makes any sense, or San Antonio even. The tanks were very cool to look at with all the different areas of the Pacific Ocean represented. I thought the exhibits at Moody Gardens... More

The touch pools were really great for the kids, and for me as well. :) I loved the sharks and jelly fish. They fed the fish in the tanks while we were there and the kids liked to see the scuba diver in with the fish. It was a fun place to visit, but be sure to find coupons before... More
