I think they are the best because they have brought a slice of the ocean to a land locked city and they make research on the animals they host a priority.

I visited the Aquarium on July 21, 2007. This was a most amazing experience, and I am so glad I had a chance to see such a beautiful sight. Thank you.

Where else in the world can you see so many fish and sea creatures outside of going to the actual oceans where they naturally exist? Wonderful experience!

My son and I live in Macon, Georgia, and have been members of the Georgia Aquarium since it opened. We visit the aquarium 3-4 times each year, and still manage to see something new during each visit. Now, at the age of five, my son knows almost as much about marine life as I do!

There is eye candy for every age group and there are definite beginnings and ends to each exhibit giving you time to review what you just experienced before going on to the next. Much like having sorbet after each course.

My husband and I took our 2 year old son this summer. He had a lot of fun, and loved looking at all the different fish and animals. If you want a fun place to take young kids, the Georgia Aquarium is the place to go.

I could sit for hours and watch the multitude of fish, large and small, swimming in the big tank. It's almost as much fun to watch the children enjoy their experience. What a wonderful gift to Atlanta.

Wow... where to begin... of course the displays were most excellent, very family oriented. Even though it was full of people, we could still enjoy it without feeling like it was creating too much anxiety. The employees made you feel completely welcome, and kept things flowing smoothly and efficiently. Will surely return in the near future with our passes.

The exhibits captures the imagination of both young and old. The attractively styled layout helps visitors to experience the unique worlds of the creatures and aides in the flow of foot-traffic.

The GA Aquarium has whale sharks and beluga whales. They are the coolest. Their exhibits are always clean and in good condition. Volunteers are knowledgeable and friendly. They show great care for the animals.

My children loved their day at the Aquarium. It was a learning experience disguised as FUN. They are looking forward to visiting again very soon. The Aquarium is a place that will long be a great family experience and a place that one could not grow tired of visiting. Our family is thankful for the experience we had together at the Aquarium.
