Review of New England Aquarium

This is an amazing aquarium! I think I've been here 6 or 7 times during my time in Boston, and my partner and I have a membership, as well. It's on the smaller side, so you can easily walk the entire thing in 2 to 2.5 hours, depending on how long you want to spend at each exhibit.
They're constantly doing live interactions with the animals like feeding the penguins, training the seals and sea lions, and answering scuba divers questions from visitors. I would recommend checking the BPS calendar to make sure students aren't on break when you plan to go, because that's when it gets really crowded. This is a must-see attraction in Boston and I love bringing visiting friends and family here!
