My kids love this placenot only for seeing the fishes, also learning about smaller stuff inside the sea
Surrounded by super modern buildings, this aquarium has less characteristic looks from out side. Despite, inside is breathtaking art exhibition. Light shows are everywhere. Well designed walk ways from room to room are apparently unlike ordinary aquarium. Fishes from all over the world are the main attraction integrated to candy colored wonderland interior. The best aquarium I ever seen.
Although small compared to other aquariums I have been at it is very impressive. They have two underwater tunels, many small to medium species. It is divided into 5 habitats. They have penguins!At the end kids can touch stingrays. Personnel is helpful and aware of visitors. Tour includes another visit to the "underwater lab" where more scientific info is given but kids can touch the tip of a Medusa among other animals.
Looking at it from the outside one would think that it is just a tiny place. But as soon as you enter you are transported down into the belly of the underwater world. Very nice, clean exhibits with a wonderful assortment of creatures to study.
The top fish tank in Mexico City. If you like sea nature this place brings them to you nicely. Beautiful, well preserved, pricy but it truly worth it. Such a variety of water animals are mesmerizing, so no wonder it is crowded (on weekends when I went). Kids will love it too.
It's way too expensive for the things inside. Could be a lot better for its price
It may not be the biggest, but certainly will take you all day long, since the collection is really interesting.
The info display layout can be better though.
Very small and outdated. It's ok if you have small children but if you enjoy a more modern aquarium this one will not compare.
Great place to visita. Entrance is a bit expensive at $195.00 MXN but it is worth it. Better be early at 10 a.m. approx or you will have to wait quite a bit to go I'm since it gets really crowdy.
Although not as large as most aquariums it's important to remember that most places don't have aquariums to begin with. You would be forced to visit another city which has one in order to be able to see the sea creatures you might only appreciate on planet Earth
We visited the other day and had a great time. It was a great change of pace and they have fish (and lots of other little creatures) of every shape, size, and color- it was a lot of fun. And the penguins were amazing! You can visit in an hour or two and it is centrally located in Polanco. They have a couple gift shops and snack bars during the course of the visit.
Very nice place, it is a good option to go with the family, you can buy the tickets online and , decide your schedule, so you avoid the queue outside to by the ticket and enter. Inside are activities that have additional cost. you will spend around 1 hr inside.
Looks can be very deceiving. I appears to be extremely small but it's 3 floors. Staff was very friendly and we'll informed they were all able to answer many questions.
It is a fun experience, a lot of people may not let you enjoy what they have in there, but if you go in the middle of the week after school tours, you may have an amazing time. Penguins are super cool.
