Aquarium of Veracruz

Acuario de Veracruz is an amazing experience! The variety of marine life is incredible, and the exhibits are both educational and visually stunning. It’s a perfect spot for families and anyone who loves sea creatures. Highly recommend visiting!

Lovey place , too many cute creatures can see just in one place. 😍 Nice environment.

One the best aquariums around the world I visited. The shark diving was excellent and loved it all the way . The picture you take with the dolphin 🐬 kissing on your cheek is just ossum. We missed to get the tickets for penguin 🐧 play time where you can play with penguin 🐧 in personal time of around 30 minutes. Would love to do that on my next visit to it .

Must visit place in Veracruz for all. Great aquarium with variety of sealife

I was visited before but now is more beautiful. Than before we love it

The aquarium is medium-sized. All is display only. They have plenty of souvenir stores inside. They DO NOT have a dolphin show or penguin show. Some of the locals that work around the area claim that they do. So, do not be fooled.

I had some ethical concerns, starting with the dolphin tricks (which to me seemed like a show even if they don't call it that) and paid interactions (touching dolphins for a photo), which doesn't feel species appropriate to me. Some tanks, like those for sea cows, seemed overcrowded. While exhibits are interesting, animal welfare needs more attention, I fear. Also the line for the tickets was very long and inside it was full of people. Felt like more people than fish.

Went in to get out of the heat. It was bigger than what we expected. They have a lot of interesting fish and aquatic animals. There are doing some construction so some exhibits were closed. Missing description of fish but we just used Google to look up names of fish. Exciting the aquarium is a food court.

Wow! Neat place. Reasonable price and good for all ages. Info plaques in Spanish and English, friendly staff, interesting exhibits that are well thought out. Animals look well cared for and are very active. Parking garage makes it easy to stop. Mall that houses it also has other tourist stops. A must see. We will go again.
