Great place to learn about our ocean environment and the diversity of Hawai'i's aquatic life. Hawaii's reefs are teeming with creatures large and small. The Coral and Giant Clam farm are a must see!

This place is an awesome value! Only $12 for admission, it's small but very informative and great for killing time. Reccomend walking because parking is very limited. Friendly staff . :)

Aquarium is not so big but there are lots of coral , subtropics fishes , jellyfishes etc. They are beatiful and impressive. Very good place for families and kids have fun time here.

Say Aloha to the monk seals ! Only in Hawaii and soooo adorable. The volunteers are very kind and caring, I love this place.

Small but amazing aquarium in Honolulu. Check out the Luau held in its back yard on certain nights of the week.

I felt like the tanks are too small, but they're doing great work for animal conservation.

Small, but still a nice escape from the sun and heat

The old seal is so cute and quirky! Watch him spin. Don't forget your student ID, and admission is only $6. Budget about 1-1.5 hours for the whole aquarium

Rose Lawrence

Make sure you look cute ! A staffer will take a pic of you and your party in front of a green screen when you first enter. You'll be able to purchase the pic on your way out :)

Still the same as I remembered from 7 years ago ???? it's under construction but either way I feel there is much more that could be done to jazz the place up
