South Carolina Aquarium

We had the best experience! It was a perfect day trip for a rainy day. Every employee was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and we enjoyed the variety of sea life and other animals. It had something for all ages and we especially enjoyed getting to see a baby alligator and a ball python up close. We also got to feed the stingrays for an additional charge, but it was such a cool experience! Highly recommend!

We have been coming to this aquarium since before my husband and I had kids, our oldest is 8. It is always fun! We brought our kids here because we were in the Charleston area for an appointment. Buying tickets online was a breeze. Parking was easy to find for this time of year. It was not crowded inside the aquarium. We were in and out within 2 hours. Overall, we did have fun during our visit. The reason I did not give 5 stars is due to pricing. I don't recall ticket prices being that high from 9 years ago. It seems a little on the pricey side.nNonethless, thank you guys for everything that you do ud83dudc22 ❤

Visited late afternoon so not very crowded. Clean interactive facility. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. My daughter loved the snakes in the reptile exhibit. Taylor was so kind and patient for spending the time explaining the creatures and entertaining my daughter curiosity about reptiles. Definite highlight of the trip.

Small but kids still had a lot of fun. Touching the sting ray and crabs and sharks are what my young ones enjoyed most. Plenty of interactive features for hands on stimulation. The staff was kind and informative. Definitely not crowded with their Covid policies in place which I personally enjoyed. Definitely make a reservation ahead. They still out fast and must of the time you cannot buy at the door because they are sold out.

My 3 year old liked petting the sting rays the best. Other than the huge fish tank downstairs, she was pretty bored. I would recommend for children 5yrs plus and adults. 3 year olds are free if I remember correctly.
