Cool fish, underwater tunnel, you can feed the horseshoe crabs, there are little classes for the kids, and its all at a really cool shopping place called Broadway at the Beach which is the huge outdoor shoppling, dining, and nightlife place all in the heart of Myrtle Beach - everything is close by!

Overpriced and overrated

Having seen fantastic aquariums in Baltimore, Boston, and elsewhere, we were sadly disappointed by this place. It is in a cramped space and has few exhibits. We also had to contend with hundreds of school children jammed into close quarters. There are two scheduled shows as well--both are lame. I would advise visitors to Myrtle Beach to save their money and spend it on other attractions in the area.

I can't wait to go back to see the sharks!

I liked everything including the moving floor, and the aquarium glass was cool, the way the shark swam over my head. Take it from me visiting Ripley's is worth the money you and your family will have a blast.

It wasn't all that great

I thought it was going to be an aquarium with some wierd stuff because it was a ripley's aquarium. There was normal fish in there but nothing unusual. It'd be an okay place for kids to go, but it's nothing out of the ordinary.

Good, but too crowded!

The lines were very long and hard to get a look at any of the animals, and we went on a tuesday! Other than that, the experience was great and the kids are looking forward to going back. I just hope it will be a little more relaxed the next time we go. As usual, the gift shop was incredably high priced, but what else is new for this kind of place

NIce but pricey!

I was taken aback by the price. This made it difficult to enjoy the exibit because I felt so bad for spending so much money. We enjoyed the experience but it wasn't anything special. For the money we paid, I expected more.

Great Experience
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/04/07
My son and I visited in December and we were really pleased with our visit. I was impressed with the time and effort put forth by the staff to decorate a Christmas tree for each state. Each tree was as unique as state it represented. We were excited to see some species of aquatic life that we had not seen in any of the aquariums we have visited in ...
