Perfect for kids, especially because there are feeding areas, but great for adults too. The Aquarium of the Pacific has so much to offer for a short amount of time. So many interesting sea animals, and some of them you are able to feed too. It/s really great.

There is also a Behind the Scenes tour, but you have to pay extra for that. You can check that by the entrance and buy the combined ticket before you enter. We didn't have time for that, unfortunately, but I heard its really worth a try. Next we will definitely make it!

Address:
100 Aquarium Way, Long Beach, CA 90802, USA

Price:
$24.95 for adults, $12.95 for children.

Opening Hours:
9am-6pm every day.
