SEA LIFE Minnesota Review

It was comfotable and clean. We bought a behind the scenes tour and the guide was great.

Good place to spend a few hours. Smaller than the mega ones. But decent.

Wonderful place for adults and children to visit. Good to support what they do. I bought a membership and then could pop in while at the mall for shopping. Love the sea turtles!

It's fun, but very expensive for the short experience.

Not at all what I was expecting inside a mall!
Mall of America was an experience in itself but add to that the aquarium experience! Wow!
I'd love to do this again!
So much to see & do here! Fin! Oops I mean fun!

Had a ball with my granddaughters at Sea Life. We did the VIP tour which was probably over priced...we did get to see the aquariums from the top view which the girls loved. I'd definitely go back, just to the regular walk through.

While mom shops, good place to keep the kids entertained. Nice exhibits. Need two hoists to navigate.

Exceptional considering its location is inside a mall, you wouldn't expect to find this level of quality in a place like this. I've traveled and seen several zoo's and aquariums, but the underwater tunnel here alone makes my top 10. Excellent staff are helpful and informative the entire way through.

Was a great experience. Worth the money if taking kids.

I really enjoyed this experience. Took the grand tour/guide. It may not be "Seaworld" but it pretty cool for here in MN. I would do it again!

We loved our trip through the aquarium. Our kids loved petting the stingrays. All of the staff were friendly and kind.

Cool exhibit, but rather overpriced. Maybe their traffic is too low and they need to make costs balance, but they could pump up the science and environmental matters being the current, very limited displays.

Went because of my son who ended up falling asleep for the whole thing....I ended up having a nice time really. I would not go again, but I will take the kiddies.

Very unorganized and crowded! Leaving it to the point grown adults where trying to push shove and walk thru my young children.

Fun and educational. Full of cool ocean life. Would be 5 stars if it were a little cleaner and better taken care of.

We loved it! We had a coupon, which was nice because admission is a bit pricey. I had my 4 year old and my teens with me and they all enjoyed it. At the end you can touch sea stars and sea anemones. Overall a good experience.

Great fun. Highly suggest the behind the scenes tour

A little pricey and shorter than expected, but our 5 year old loved it.

we go there pretty often. Kids love that they can pet see stars, some shells, see plants

I've been to a few aquariums so my expectations of this place were pretty low. I was blown away! The overhead aquarium was awesome! There was a great variety of large fish and sharks and stingrays. I've been to aquariums that cost much more than this one and offered way less. It would have been cool to see some octopuses, other than that it was a super cool experience for a reasonable price.

We have had a membership here for at least the past two years and are there a few times per month.

They have added some new exhibits recently that are just great! I love the leafy sea dragons and the new jelly fish. I can't wait to see what they add next.

The staff is always so friendly and helpful with our 5 and 2.5 year old.

I would recommend staying far, far away on the weekends. It is insanely busy. We love Tuesday or Wednesday evenings the best as you almost have the place to yourself (shhh.... don't tell anyone).

Pretty fun to go here! My wife and I have been here a couple times. It is a little spendy but it was fun to relive childhood memories coming here!

Really enjoyed the big walk through tanks. Price point a bit much

Its great for people that love fish but I hate it so I was so scared

Buy tix online and save yourself $. Overall, good time.

The aquarium being all around you is neat, and the touch and feel tank is cool.

Not bad for being in a mall Lol. Really busy and packed

Great place to bring your kids. We had 1 year old in a jogger stroller and 4 year old. We wished we had put the stoller in the stoller parking area by the coffee instead of trying to maneuver it through the crowds.

It was amazing, we seen fish we didn't see before like unicorn fish :)

My kids had a blast but I'm not sure it was worth the price. Very pricey. They also had long lines to get in and not enough staff working. If going after 1, expect long lines to purchase tickets.

Amazingly educational and a fabulous experience for older kids.

Wonderful place for afukts and children. Recommend behind the scenes, very informative and up close and personal.

We spent a day at MOA with our two year old, and had a great time at Sea Life MN Aquarium! She loved the touch pool & some of the interactive pieces of the exhibit. Mom & Dad thought the tunnel was amazing, although our toddler did seem a little nervous being so up close to so many huge sea creatures! Overall a good time, and we look forward to coming back when she's a little older.

It was a great experience. I found out they do more than just the aquarium, they put a lot of effort into saving wildlife efforts.

One of the best aquarium I have ever seen. Must visit place for kids and everyone.

Quality water tube where the fishies can swim right over top of you. Not sure how I feel about the splashes from the Sting Rays.

Had fun.

Is the glass starting to crack in the shark aquarium? Look out!

It have fish and it's bit over priced can't even get the damn things at least at sea world you could pet them.

They had lots of interesting sea creatures. It was well worth our time & the cost of the ticket to get in.

Great family entertainment. Would have been 5 stars but the restrooms are in need of updating.

Whoops I meant to give 5 stars. If I could give 6 I would. We've been making an annual trip to the mall of America for some years now and our first and last stop is always the aquarium. Wish we lived closer so could go more often. A totally magical experience and a great place to recharge after all that shopping.

They've redone parts of this since I was last here and my kids loved it so much. They have done a great job of making modifications to follow Covid guidelines.

It's a pretty standard aquarium, maybe a bit pricey. I am not into aquariums much. I brought my mother in law here for mother's day weekend. She seemed to enjoy herself; she loves these things. The long tunnel where you are under water was the most impressive. My husband is a bit claustrophobic and didn't like that part much. I won't return. Once was enough.

so much fun! Confusing ast first where to pay and go.

Come back after remodel. It is a real pain right now.

A bit pricey for the amount of interaction I must say, but the overall views were memorable for sure

It was a great experience and I would do it again. In the future.

Nice place well kept. A little on the expensive side.

It is a good place if you just want to see sea life. Sadly poor info on any of the animals. Also very big RIP off. Got season pass for family and right after they close 1/2 of it to remodel. Pass runs out just before new area is open. Sad they will not and didn't care how they screwed pass owners over and didn't tell half was closing. They could say we will give you more time on pass but didn't and showed no care.

This is an enjoyable experience with a good variety of species to see. The underwater tunnel is a great walk through and you could spend a lot of time there. I'd suggest finding out when they're least likely to be busy, as it's better with uncrowded walkways and without a lot of kids making noise. Would be nice to have a full touch tank experience with some fish or rays and adding an octopus exhibit would be an improvement.

The cost is not in line with the amount of time it takes to look at the entire exhibit.

It was a good time! It was really neat to see the fish, but I wish that I wasn't felt like I was rushed through. This is perfect for children, but not perfect for a date with your girlfriend. I might come again when they open the Amazon exhibit. Overall a really great place and I might come here with my kids in the future, but not for a date. Although if you want to eat and do stuff in the mall that could be a quick fun stop.
