National Marine Aquarium Reviews

Place big but let down conpaired to one in Southsea two open tanks top floor rest was all behind glass would I recommend no sorry I would not if you ever in Malta visit there's it Great

There were fish and jellyfish and lobsters and crabs and a cool octopus. Sadly couldn't find the seahorses. It's quite reasonably priced and they seemed to have one central tank which had different ways of viewing it. I liked that you can lay down under the curved tank and watch the sharks, rays, fish and a turtle swim around you.

Best Aquarium I`ve seen so far. Better than Fehmarn, Auckland, Dubai and other aquariums. Great for kids and family. Loads of fish to discover easily.

Absolutely loved it. Been to a few Aquariums over the years and this is the best yet. Variety and quality of exhibits make the entrance fee well worth the price especially when you consider much smaller places are charging an almost identical entrance fee. I'd wholly recommend a visit.

Omg..what a place..brilliant for all ages..places available just to sit and watch the fish...talks given, feeding times announced if you want to watch..friendly knowledgable staff..

Well worth a visit. Loads to see and experience, and children are well catered for, with activities, and staff on hand who explain what they're looking at. Quite expensive but you can use your tickets for free visits for a year. There is a bridge across to the Barbican; which is closed for repairs; but there is a temporary bridge, next to it, which is open from 10am till 5.30. This temporary bridge is easy to miss, so the signage could probably be a bit clearer.

Great place, fantastic conservation, but quite small for the entry fee. 90 mins max and the kids have seen everything and want to move on.

The small colourful fish, the big fish, the jellyfish, the sharks, the Ray's the giant turtle everything was so mesmerizing. The octopuses were sleeping when I visited. I do wish they had more seahorses and maybe some squid.

We have been meaning to go for ages and today we finally found the time to visit, really glad we did because it's brilliant, the staff are friendly and helpful and the tanks are huge with some amazing fish. There are also lovely views from the coffee shop over the harbour. Please go you will love it.

Expensive place to visit. When you pay you get an anual return ticket for free. Unless you have a hard on for fish, there isn't really a need to return on e you have been. It's one of them places where once you have seen it once you have seen it a million times.
If you have young kids it could be fun for them but all in all its meh at best.

It was ok, but not as we expected to be. They said it is the biggest in the area, but we spent like 40min ish.
It is nice for a rainy day or if you have children.

Fantastic experience for kids and adults. 3-5h stay

Great value for money. Will definitely be using our free annual pass

Really nice, but only took an hour to get around, will need to go back to get value for money

Really interesting place but it only takes a few hours if that to go around.

This is easily one of our favourite places to visit. Great value for money with the free return within a year, accessible to wheelchairs, lots of sign language signs around. The tanks are totally mesmerising!

Not worth the money. Some aquariums were too small. Signs on signs were sometimes difficult to read because the text had been worn away.

Great few hours out with lots to see. Lovely clean aquariums and the main exhibit is the largest tank in the UK, well worth a visit.

Great day out we all enjoyed it. Take a picnic though the cafe is not great.

Great afternoon out, taken the 1 star off as we had to queue in the rain to get through entrance.
