    Great place to learn about our ocean environment and the diversity of Hawai'i's aquatic life. Hawaii's reefs are teeming with creatures large and small. The Coral and Giant Clam farm are a must see!

    This place is an awesome value! Only $12 for admission, it's small but very informative and great for killing time. Reccomend walking because parking is very limited. Friendly staff. :)

    Small but amazing aquarium in Honolulu. Check out the Luau held in its back yard on certain nights of the week.

    I felt like the tanks are too small, but they're doing great work for animal conservation.

    The old seal is so cute and quirky! Watch him spin. Don't forget your student ID, and admission is only $6. Budget about 1-1.5 hours for the whole aquarium

    Hard to believe that this place is located in Waikiki area, quite peaceful than outside surroundings

    Make sure you look cute! A staffer will take a pic of you and your party in front of a green screen when you first enter. You'll be able to purchase the pic on your way out :)

    Still the same as I remembered from 7 years ago 😒 it's under construction but either way I feel there is much more that could be done to jazz the place up

    そこまで敷地が広くないので丁度いい時間でまわれる。ちょっとした広場も有る。
