Here are the five best aquariums in the United States:
Georgia Aquarium - Atlanta - Right smack dab in the middle of Atlanta, Georgia sits one of the finest aquariums in the world. The Georgia Aquarium is known for the incredible number of different marine species it houses as well as a fantastic set up. The information is as important as the animals in Georgia Aquarium as the guides are knowledgeable and fun. If you and the family are ever down around Georgia, you simply have to stop by this great aquarium and enjoy the fun.
Living Seas - Epcot, Orlando - Orlando is all about the ocean and the marine life that is in it, and Living Seas gives you the best of it in one special visual treat. The sheer volume of incredible sights in this epic aquarium leaves one with the feeling that they must come back over several days to fully take it in. With all the other attractions around Orlando, one would think that the aquarium might be empty from time to time, but once you see it you will understand why that is not so. The place is simply magical and paints a picture of the sea like no other place in America.
Monterey Bay Aquarium - California - Monterey Bay Aquarium is another fine example of how the aquarium mirrors the area. The beautiful California town is completely visible in virtually every display of ocean beauty. From the colorful fish to the powerfully large predators, Monterey Bay is near the pinnacle of aquarium adventure and beauty.
Discovery Cove - Part of Seaworld in Orlando - Discovery Cove is a part of the Seaworld in Orlando, but it could certainly stand alone as an aquarium anywhere in the world. The wonders of Seaworld are no more exciting than the exciting adventures found in Discovery Cove. This wonderful park in Orlando rivals Living Seas as the top aquarium in Florida. The displays are magnificent and the guides are worth their weight in sand dollars. A wonderful experience that is also fairly priced to boot.
Ripley’s Aquarium - Myrtle Beach - Ripley’s has long been known for the incredible and the weird, and the aquarium keeps up the tradition. They not only have the strange parts of the ocean, however.
