Nice Small Aquarium

5.00We brought 2 of our grandkids here. They are very welcoming and the tanks hold many beautiful sea life creatures! We saw sting rays, eels, sharks, star fish, turtles, and numerous fish of every shape and size. There was even an interactive area where you can gently touch the star fish with supervision. The kids loved it and we did too.
Sea life in a mall!

4.0013 year old daughter and I had a few hours to kill before a concert downtown. We drove to Concord Mills to beat the heat and do some window shopping. This place is as advertised. Better for smaller kids. We got the basic admission. They will try to upsell you on a couple items, but it's easy to decline and do the basic, self-guided tour. A little pricey for the 30 minutes or so that we wandered around.
Fun with the fishes

1.00Went with my service dog on Christmas Eve alone. She got excited about the fish and barked once. Staff approached me and told me we would be asked to leave if she barked again. Very upsetting to be treated so harshly
