    We love the aquarium! We've been members a number of times (and are again currently) since moving…read moreto Cleveland 9 years ago. The aquarium makes for a great adventure any time, any season, but it is especially great for days that are hot or cold, and if it's rainy or snowing. You can explore the aquarium as a safe, fun outing when you want to get out of the house and the weather isn't cooperating. My husband and I enjoyed visiting over the years, and when we had our baby last year, we knew it would be a great place for her to visit as well! She's now a year old and she gets excited when we take her out of the car and she realizes where she is. While this is not a massive aquarium, it's truly lovely. I grew up in the northeast and went to the Boston Aquarium countless times, I've been to the Mystic Aquarium, and the Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto as well. Is this one comparable at all in scale and size? No. But it isn't trying to be, either. They talk about sustainability, and what they've done with what is available to them in rehabbing the old industrial building is honestly incredible. Can you zoom through the aquarium in 30 minutes? Probably. But why? Take your time and really appreciate being up close and personal with so many different fish species-we especially enjoy the lion fish and snowflake eel tubes (especially trying to find where the eels are poking and peeking out of, my baby always giggles when she sees them at eye level). While there are some smaller exhibits, check them out and really take in what you're seeing. Watch how the animals interact, look at how their scales change in varying light, check out how they interact with YOU as well. You might just be surprised! Also, while there is quite a bit of reading material spread throughout, it's in easy to read and comprehend blocks. We really enjoy the different zones of the aquarium, and one of our family favorites is the entire shark zone area. Sitting in one of the chairs by the tank and just watching the sharks go by or some of the tropical fish or stingrays zoom by is so relaxing! My baby always relaxes and is so soothed in this area. The aquarium hosts different events throughout the year, and we've enjoyed visiting during the Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine's Day events. I like how they'll have fun trivia and decorate to suit the event. My baby enjoyed the divers during Christmas and how they waved and blew bubbles towards her! They also have activity sheets in both English and Spanish, which is great for bilingual families, and for those that may be encouraging and/or teaching either language to their little ones (when my baby is old enough, I'll be using the Spanish one to help her learn new vocab!) The entire aquarium is very clean (including the bathrooms), there is a changing table in the women's room, and the staff is very pleasant and kind to interact with. I also want to point out that while we often come here as a family, I also bring my baby on my own and have always felt very safe being there with just the two of us.

    My 19-year-old son and I received tickets to the Cleveland Aquarium as a Christmas gift from my…read moreparents. They know we value experiences, which made this a perfect gift. They also gave us zoo tickets, but we personally avoid zoos due to animal treatment concerns--however, we do enjoy aquariums. We visited on a weekday and parked on the street to save on parking, which was easy to find. The aquarium itself is very easy to navigate and not overwhelming. I did bring a mask with me because the flu has been going around, but interestingly, the only time I truly needed it was when we first walked in. The initial room--focused on local Ohio rivers and lakes--had a very strong, unpleasant smell that caught me off guard. I was briefly worried the entire aquarium might smell that way, but once we moved past that section, the odor completely dissipated and I was able to enjoy the rest of the visit comfortably. From there on, the experience was wonderful. While the aquarium is on the smaller side, it truly has everything you need. We took our time, enjoyed the visuals, and really appreciated the calm, immersive atmosphere. My favorites were the beautiful green snake (I can't remember the exact name), a stunning bird, and, of course, watching the fish--especially the tropical fish--glide through the tanks. Overall, it's a great aquarium, easy to get around, thoughtfully laid out, and absolutely worth the visit. We had a wonderful time.
