This was the biggest waste of money I have ever spent on any form of entertainment. The only thing worth looking at is the very last tank ( there's probably just 10 tanks total no lie) my whole group was severely dissappointed. You see better aquariums at free attractions or a small zoo. Spend the ticket price for dinner at a restaurant with a ...
There are better aquariums in Vegas that are free, but I still enjoyed it. You are suppose to spend money in Vegas. I guess it's better than loosing money in a casino and not getting anything from it. Something me and the girls did that was totaly worth the money was pole dance lessons at Pole Worx. It was $20 and an awesome time.
If you like sea animals ,you should the miss it.The evvironment was good.It was little bit expensive side.

Went on recommendation from son who had been there when it was free. We spent good gambling money to see, two sharks, and a couple of tigers. DON'T GO.

The shark reef itself is cool, but the price tag is not worth what you get. You walk around looking at a bunch of other fish then all the sharks are at the end. Which is really the only cool part.
it was kinda spendy but i thought it was pretty cool. they give you little cell phone things that you listen to as you walk around so you can learn more about what you are looking at. its cool that way you can go at your own pace. the sting rays that you can pet are super cool.
i think if you wanna spend that amount of money to see fishes, you're better off going to aquarium places (eg. Downtown Aquarium) cause you'll spend just about the same amount of money and get to see more fishes and other animals.
the shark reef place was small, and walking around it didnt take long. i was slightly disappointed.
Ok, so it's not the LARGEST shark reef display in the world, but considering it is in the middle of the desert in an area geared toward gambling adults....this place is a welcome relief to both kids and adults. I have been there twice- once with my 13 yr old and just recently with my hubby. You get a hand held device with your entry fee that ...
