Aquarium of Niagara

Been coming here since I was a kid. Some exhibits change and the seal show is cool but it truly needs to be expanded. A river around the place would be cool, inside and out to truly showcase the river aquatic life. We live in an area that has a large amount of the fresh water on the planet. Lets SHOW THE FISH ETC. THAT ARE PROMINENT TO THE GREAT LAKES AND THE NORTHEAST. Is it possible to have staff show off the local fish,crustations, plants etc. that are prominent to the Great Lakes area.

Simply don’t waste your time...nnMy girlfriend and I were very excited to go and enjoy the presents of some aquatic animals. After driving for 30 min we were take immediately taken back by how small it looked from the outside, only to hope it was larger then in look... well it certainly wasn’t. The aquarium consisted of roughly one cool exhibit. The entire place can be viewed in 20 min. Not worth the 20$ for admission!

This place is okay and quite small to see all excursions however their sea lion show was really good and the sea lions were v.cute. The selection of fishes were nice but less and some kind of smell was there all over so they need to maintain a bit. Rest was good ,staff was decent.The discovery pass includes this spot so you can cover it easily and enjoy yourself.

I hadn't been in a few years and the penguin swimming area is greatly improved! They've also added a touch tank with sharks and rays and it was SO cool. They have timed entry and one way traffic flow, everything was very clean, sanitizing stations were easy to find. It's still small, but my kids are 3 and 5, and we were there for about an hour and a half with no problems. There's a nice walkway down to where you can see the falls right next to the aquarium as well.

This is a nice small aquarium. Clean and nicely maintained. Staff was friendly and helpful. It took my family of four (2 small children) about an hour to go through. They loved the different types of fish. Touching the sting rays was hard since we came in January with snow coats on. Had to take those off, and did our best to roll up the kids sleeves...but still they got their shirt sleeves a little wet as they reached down into the tank. But still they had fun trying to touch the stingrays. The penguins were awesome and playful. We didn't see any extra shows because of COVID, but still plenty to see. Don't plan on spending a day there...this is not San Diego or some other large place...but still a nice place to visit. Lots of local fish too, which is nice since we are in the Great Lakes region. We plan on returning several times soon to see the animals.
