There's lots to see for all ages. There's a small "touch" tank, that's pretty cool. Very educational, interesting, cool to see.

Fun place for all to enjoy. We saw a lot of nice fish. Learned a lot about the sea. We also were able to feed fish

We've been to Key West prior, but never went to the aquarium. However, our hotel was next door and we figured we'd go. This was a surprisingly neat little place. It's not a huge national aquarium, nonetheless, its purpose is huge! They rehabilitate sea turtles and other sea creatures. Remember, your admission ticket pays for the daily operation of this facility. A definite must!

Lovely small aquarium with all local fish! It really feels like part of the surrounding ecosystem. We learned a ton and my son loved helping feed the sharks. Also, the turtles were super cool. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Key West with kids!

The staff was very helpful and they put on very educational and engaging mini presentations like for their turtles, sharks, invasive species, etc. Their space is not incredibly big but they use the space well and their animals are engaged with visitors. Davon talked to us for a while about the reptiles and was very kind and educated on whatever questions we had!

The aquarium is small but very interesting. Considering that it was established in 1935, its very well kept and remodeled. Alex was great in helping us find out more about almost anything in the aquarium and his nurse shark feeding session was a joy for my kids. Thank you Key West Aquarium, thanks Alex.

I love how well knowledge the employees are. My kids had an amazing time. My 4 year old could not move away from the star fish ( hands on)

The aquarium has a nice display of sea creatures in various tanks. There is also a touch exhibit at the front of the aquarium and the staff provides some good information on the various sea creatures in the tank. There are turtles and a tank with some small sharks. Worth a short visit.
