Très beau petit aquarium, très pédagogique et le personnel est super gentil et passionné. Ils défendent une be llecause en soignant et relâchant les animaux au bout de 6mois.

Cet aquarium à Campbell River est sans aucun doute la plus belle que j'ai eu la chance de visiter.

On peut observer (et même toucher) les espèces locales (crabes, octopus, étoiles de mer, bernards l'ermite, etc) recueillis en debut de saison - remis en liberté à la fin de la saison.

L'employée présente était bilingue et connaissait bien ses colocataires. Nous en avons appris beaucoup sur ces espèces marines propre à l'île de Vancouver qui ne cesse de nous émerveiller

Great things come in small packages! This aquarium is a great family fun adventure! Every year, new marine life are gently captured by loving staff and volunteers and then at the end of the season the aquarium holds a public release event where visitors can help gently release the marine life back into its natural habitat. Fabulous fun! We go every year! 🦀🐠Don’t forget to pick your choice for a name for this year’s Octopus! 🐙

Small but quaint. The touch tank us amazing & the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. You can touch the sea cucumbers, sea urchins, several species of star fish. Take your time & enjoy the many sea water tanks that contain a vast array of sea life. Admission is $6 for seniors & worth every penny.

My 3 yo did not want to leave. We went in the morning and returned in the afternoon. Small building but a lot of critters to see and touch! Amazing staff. Brunette with curly hair gave us what seemed like a private tour, answering all of our questions and super nice. 100% recommend for a nice day on the pier!

So much to look at if you really take the time to enjoy the little things. Everywhere you look there is a new little treasure in the form of a life 🐠 Thank you Rachel for answering all my questions throughout my time! Will be back

Never been in here but it's a part of the place my wife and I went many times when we started dating. It's non profit and showcases some interesting looking stuff (we've peaked in the doors before passing by)
This harbor and the ice cream shop as well are all wonderful memories and beautiful scenery to go see. A tucked away icon of campbell river life.

Overall, actually a cute aquarium and nice for kids. Fair price as well.

But the octopus and its aquarium ruined the rest of my day. How can you keep such a beautiful and intelligent creature in a tank that is maybe twice as long as the animal itself? Absolutely unnecessary and very sad to be honest. I was upset afterwards that I went in.
