So many beers on draft!
Riley S.

Awesome! No questions asked added 5 more rides which are great for kids and also have a new gift store and food inside and about 15 beers on draft so it's perfect for the kids and the parents :)

Just from my point of view, I counted 7 empty swings from the long line I was waiting in.

I've been keeping aquariums for 40 plus years. This is my go to place for livestock and equipment…read more Knowledgeable staff and super helpful. Their fish selection is awesome but their reptile and invertebrates is very thorough. I am in the midst of creating a 200 gallon tank and will be getting most of the supplies here. Even my custom aquarium order. I can spend hours here just looking around.

My husband and i came to look around and see what we could find for my bearded dragons enclosure…read more Maybe cork or branches or rocks... as i walked around to see other reptiles i came across this... If you look closely it's a decomposed baby crusted gecko, looks like it's been there maybe months. His eyes were sinked in. Basically just skin I couldn't believe my eyes i thought it was just his shed that had came off.. however after really looking at it, i knew its been dead for a little bit. Not only that but there are spiders INSIDE the enclosure. Black widows from what it looks like, they have a lot of spider eggs just chillen in there with these live baby crusted geckos . I'm not sure if they check these animals often . After seeing that, i told the people that worked there and they not only did he confirm it was dead he actually discovered a SECOND one dead in there.. im not sure how often they check these animals, from the looks of it, not often at all. but a lot of these reptiles looks sad and sick. But this is something that amazed me. I just couldn't believe it. DO BETTER PET KINGDOM PLEASE Also on a side note, their prices are ridiculous. 34$ for a fake plant for an enclosure. The cork is expensive. Branches are small and expensive I guarantee you anyone who buys a reptile from here , their reptile is already sick and or will die due to parasites and bad health. I do not recommend any of your buying a reptile from here. I used to like this place years ago but now it just looks like they neglect their animals.

Extremely disappointed with our experience at SeaWorld San Diego. We were only at the park for…read moreabout THREE HOURS, and during that short amount of time just to watch Baby Shark Halloween Show, our wagon was stolen from the designated stroller parking area at the Mission Bay Theater while we were watching a children's show. What makes this even more upsetting is that this happened in an area specifically filled with families and young children. You're bringing your child to a theme park to have a fun family day, and meanwhile someone had the audacity to intentionally take another family's wagon and belongings knowing very well it did not belong to them. It's honestly pathetic. Since sharing what happened, I've had multiple people message me telling me they've also had strollers or wagons stolen at SeaWorld, which makes this even more concerning. Even someone messaged me she was with her three children by herself with a newborn watching the dolphin show, and someone stole her stroller and nothing was done to help her. What has made the situation even more frustrating is the lack of follow-up afterward. I reported the wagon missing directly to security and gave them my phone number. I would expect to be contacted whether the wagon was found or not, even if it was simply an update letting me know that nothing had been turned in. When I later called trying to get a direct number for Lost & Found so I could follow up myself, I was told there really wasn't a number for me to call and check. I was directed to an online Lost & Found form, and I was even told that if I wanted to see whether my wagon had been returned, I could physically come back to SeaWorld and check for myself. What is the point of taking my phone number when I report stolen property if there is no follow-up afterward? A guest shouldn't have to repeatedly check an online form or drive back to the park just to find out whether their property was recovered. For a major family theme park where parents are expected to leave strollers and wagons in designated areas while attending shows and attractions, there needs to be a better system in place. Better monitoring, better security around stroller parking areas, and a better process for communicating with families when something like this happens. And if someone is caught intentionally stealing another family's stroller, wagon, or belongings, I believe SeaWorld should permanently ban that person AND anyone in their party who knowingly participated or helped them do it. There should be real consequences for stealing from families at a children's theme park. We were there for THREE HOURS. I never imagined I'd have to worry about someone stealing our daughter's wagon during a family day at SeaWorld. It completely put a damper on what was supposed to be a special day with her.

There are 7 total ships, including the Star of India, and a submarine. You can purchase your ticket…read moreat any of the main booths/boat entrances, then show your receipt to visit the others on the same day. The flexibility of a self-guided tour was great. One ship was away on a sail in the afternoon this past Saturday, but there was more than enough to explore on the various vessels during our visit. Plenty to see and experience on each of the boats. We stepped onto the swift boat where staff educated us about its machine gun. And we walked through and checked out the different sections of the USS Dolphin submarine too. The HMS Surprise was a lovely ship with plenty of references to its use in films. The Star of India was like a museum all on its own, so many areas to explore and a ton of history to learn. The Californian was pretty basic, not very different from many other ships we've visited in the past. Steam Ferry Berkeley was the largest, with displays showcasing scientific instruments, model boats, artwork, the riverboats in Vietnam, the engine room, a torpedo caught by a fisherman, and a special exhibit featuring the "histories of the black pacific". There's a gift shop on site as well. Altogether, the variety of ships at the Maritime Museum made for an interesting adventure, a bit touristy, but worth the cost if you're into history or simply like boats.

Ok so I will split this into two reviews:…read more 1: the ships and actual adventure 2: the reservation process and customer service 1: booked a trip for the Spanish replica ship adventure the San Salvador and really loved it. The ticket also got you access to the other ships to walk around which was cool. But the coolest part was that San Salvador was sailed like they would have sailed it waaay back when. We got to see real rigging masts sails steering all being done by a crew and it was a totally amazing experience and such a perfect day. Bonus: we saw dolphins and it was a perfect day. Drawback: the gentlemen speaking throughout didn't talk into his mic often so missed a lot but oh well - who's really going for history?! such a good time!!. 2. I had a good with my tickets and called and tried to talk to folks in person and could never get someone. The tickets were cancelled but not refunded which was a bummer and staff in the kiosk even said they phone lines were messed up. A bummer. :(

Hakkai is the sister shop to Pet Zone (exotic fishes). It's focus is purely an urban pop up shop…read morefor aquascape at Liberty Station at Barrack 19 at the corner of Dewey and Historic Decatur road. We came the first week of November on their soft opening. Located inside the double doors, you'll find Hakkai occupying a tiny space no more than 200 sqft that mimics an art gallery, except it ranges from small to large aquariums or shall I say "tanks" with living creatures inside as in tree branches, wood, stones. You can buy what you see or create your own. Other shelf items are fertilizers, rocks, and plants. What is aquascape? It's a form of art, an "under water gardening" activity. Before this, I never knew this type of hobby existed. Just like gardening, aquascape has many styles: Iwagumi style Manzanita wood Dutch tank Aquascaping Planted tanks Rimless tank Low iron tanks The service here is wonderful. The staff will help you on your tank needs whether you're a newbie or a veteran. They even sell already curated tanks. Aquascape is like the latest paint with wine or pottery activity because Hakkai offer group workshops where you can learn how to design your own tank! Hands on classes are offered at this location in the courtyard. The workshops are offered by skill level, types of styles and some are free while others require a fee. This activity would be great as a gift or for yourself especially when it's outdoors and you can maintain social distance during CoVId.

If you're tryna get into Aquascape, come thru to Hakkai! They made a good choice to set up shop in…read moreLiberty Station, since the vibe and the space is great for the classes/workshops they put on! The staff is knowledgeable and they will get you up to date on learning about the hobby and setting you up with the right equipment and tools to become a master at this. Highly recommend!
