The Adventure Aquarium
The Adventure Aquarium formerly known as the New Jersey State Aquarium is an entertaining kid-friendly amusement park that offers several live or painted aquatic creatures. It has been licensed to operate by the New Jersey State Aquarium. It has two themes, namely the City of New York and the Seaside City. Its main attraction is the Big Apple Aquarium which includes a replica of the New York City skyline and the Statue of Liberty. In addition to the attractions, there are also several shops and restaurants. At the end of June, the aquarium will close for renovations.
For those who want to enjoy the New Jersey State Aquarium without having to pay the admission fee, they can buy one of the zoo's visitors' passes. The passes have different price ranges and are available before the end of May through September. They can be purchased online or at a New Jersey state park ticket office. Most of the passes include free entry into the Adventure Aquarium and other attractions.
The pre-Kleen Aquarium is another kid-friendly attraction located in Atlantic City, New Jersey. This aquatic attraction is for both kids and adults. Among the featured animals are the stingray, clownfish, rainbow trout, blue catfish, largemouth bass, and damselfly. There are also interactive exhibits where visitors can learn about life aquatic from experts like Dr. Linus Frick. One of the highlights of the tour is when the tank is "redressed" so that tank inhabitants like the stingray can feel the water and see the other fish swimming around.
