    Buy your tickets ahead of time. If you've got the time, buy the Pemberton Place Pass so you can see both World of Coke & Aquarium - and bypass the long lines! Otters are my fave!

    Their system was down and not sending out the email confirmation with the barcode. Instead of making 30 paying customers wait, a lady came and out and took care of us. Nice job Georgia Aquarium 🐠🐳🐋

    Your ticket price now includes the Dolphin Show, but you need to get your show tickets inside. Doors open about 30-40 mins before each show.

    No weapons allowed, they do a check with the magic wand. Don't miss the dolphin show.

    The Georgia Aquarium's Earth Day celebration is a great opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at how staff care for animals as well as scavenger hunts, arts & crafts, and more.

    Hard to tell. It was so crowded you couldn’t see anything. Dangerously crowded in my opinion. We bolted after half an hour to walk in the park outside and get some fresh air.

    People, put down your cameras, iPhones, and iPads and just observe. Your incessant picture taking and selfies are annoying.

    Consider getting a season pass, if you decide on your same visit your daily ticket can be converted into a season pass by just paying the difference.

    Use the flashlight app on your phone to entertain the penguins. Turn on the light and put it against the glass when they are swimming. They will follow it as you move.

    Sea Otter cashier chick at the cafe (1:44pm today) was a total bitch to everyone. Time for a new "career" perhaps? Pizza is crap. The Aquarium is very nice though!
