I took my partner here for them to do the VIP package behind the scenes with sharks and it was fantastic!! The tickets were evenly priced , the staff were so helpful and knowledgeable. Mall was awesome so shout out to her for such a great experience and you can tell she really loves her job AND the animals . The exhibits were clean, well maintained and the animals were all healthy and visible. I got to learn and see so many sea creatures that I wouldn't normally had I not gone here. I can tell the staff love what they do. This was also a decent place for kids and it didn't even bother me that they were there. The food and gift shop were decently priced but of course it's where they make money to take care of the animals so we did spend some coins . Overall 10/10 experience and I would definitely go again if they add another exhibit.

When I went back to the store they refused to offer a refund or even an exchange claiming their policy states no refund or exchange even if it's 24 hours later, which is ridiculous. Take your business to a store that values its customers and stands behind what they sell. Save your time, money, and frustration.

This is a great maritime center and aquarium!…read more They have a seal show centered in the seals' health care and our show had the veterinarians there doing examinations and applying eye drops. Everyone was told the animals histories and why they were still there. One of the seals is blind and they explained how it is able to still negotiate their living space. The hands touch areas are well monitored with staff and again explanations of the different species was provided! Hand wash and dry stations were all around prior to and after touching animals. The exhibits were thoughtfully planned out and large enough for multiple person viewing. I would have like more sitting areas in some of the halls for us older folks watching independent children who wanted to hang out watching the meerkats or owls or birds. The fish tank area with the sea turtles was magnificent! The jelly fish exhibit so relaxing and zen with the background music. The new puffin exhibit is a combination of live puffins and then video presentations of their living areas in Maine! For me 2 year old granddaughter to be attentive for 4 hours was spectacular- thank you!

Not worth full admission but if you purchase the bubble Planet, they give you a generous discount. However Bubble Planet is only there for a few more weeks. The staff could use a tune in customer service, the guy argued me about said discount and wouldn't give it to me - a manager did. Overall, discounted tickets would make this worth your while. In and out in about 45 minutes.

You aren't allowed to touch them but if they land on you, you just enjoy that blessing and time with the butterfly that landed on you. All of the staff there are well-trained, welcoming, and friendly with both my kids. You have the option to upgrade your regular admission to a one year membership after your visit. To save yourself from a 3.5% surcharge if you use credit, you'll want to pay in cash. Breakeven for my membership was about 3 visits and we did just that for the 4 days we were in Riverhead. My kids loved it so much that they are already asking to go back. The aquarium is well kept and the sharks are HUGE!! They are definitely well fed. The aquarium is Atlantis themed and you can tell a lot of time, money, and detail went into the making of this aquarium. The aquarium is privately owned and you do see sponsorship (advertisement) from private companies. I am comparing my experience with the NY aquarium in Brooklyn, which I have visited countless times. The Long Island Aquarium blows the NY aquarium away in every way possible. It's new, ventilation indoors is amazing, the sea lion show has shade, the penguins can be seen up close, there's an inexpensive option to snorkel, theres a big tree house, etc. I would totally recommend coming here with your family. If you come on weekdays, there might be a lot of school kids, and if you want to avoid that, you probably should should come around 1 or 2pm. Highly recommend this aquarium.

You are free during your birthday week however the tickets are costly for everyone else. There is a first responder discount which helped a little. The one thing is that we didn't factor in field trips. When we went the whole middle school of Northport was there and it was so loud and rowdy. Of course, they are kids but it seemed that this was way overbooked in field trips. My daughter and us as a family really couldn't enjoy the aquarium due to the crowd and rowdiness on a weekday... There were also limited outdoor exhibits. I felt that we weren't there for long due to the crowd and lack of exhibits. Definitely don't recommend the trip out there.

There are also penguins. You can go in and out as many times as you want each day with a stamp. One note of advice: if you go during the summer months, try to go after 12 noon. There were many camp kids when I arrived at around 10:30.

It was our first time visiting, and it's such a cute place to spend the day. The aquarium itself was nice, but it was much smaller than I expected. I had read online that most people spend 1-2 hours there, but we were able to see everything in about 45 minutes. Because of its size, I wouldn't recommend making a special trip just for the aquarium. However, if you're already planning to spend the day on the boardwalk or enjoy the other attractions, it's a worthwhile stop. One thing I really appreciated was that they allow re-entry. We were able to leave, grab something to eat, and come back in time to watch the shark feeding, which was a nice perk. Overall, it's a pleasant little aquarium, but I expected more.

We had prepaid tickets and spent quite a while on hold trying to find an open route before finally making it. The aquarium is very clean and has a great variety of animals, but it was surprisingly crowded for a Monday. We had to wait just to see many of the exhibits, and admission is a bit pricey. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and would come back, but be prepared for big crowds and check road conditions if there's heavy rain.

This was also much more expensive than the others we have been to. The layout could be better. The 6 year old loves sharks and knows a lot a them. Walking underneath the tank and seeing them was fascinating. The kids really enjoyed the shark rope bridge - we did it 4 times Don't get food there. We did because we expected the 2 year old to fall asleep in the car but she barely ate any of her chicken tenders or fries and didn't want to bring them home for later. My stomach is still upset from the pizza that we shared but couldn't finish. Of course it was overpriced I would have considered becoming a member to support them but they don't have reciprocity with any other aquarium
