Glen Echo Park Aquarium

A very nice site, located in Maryland, very close to Washington, with ample parking, we really spent a very pleasant afternoon visiting the aquarium, although it is not as big as we expected, it was an interactive educational experience, the staff give a lot of information important and are ready to answer questions and clarify doubts. A great experience, especially for children.

Informative and a lovely local space for kids to explore. Always a wonderful time.

I think this is a good place for children 2-3, but if you have an energetic 6 year old then the 10 minutes it takes to look around the Aquarium itself isn’t worth the $8 per person. It was a little frustrating that their email says to walk to the yellow area of their building but it turns out it’s actually blue, so that was a bit confusing. The touch tank mainly consisted of a horseshoe crab and snail for our visit. However, the staff member was very friendly. I just expected a little more.

Support your local shops- this was a small quaint neat aquarium. Nothing crazy but spent a good hour here. I learned a lot and had a good time. $8 per person. There's a sandbox and games outside the aquarium.
