Visiting the National Aquarium in Baltimore

Baltimore Aquarium Inner HarborI love to travel and I’m pretty fortunate that my other job affords me the ability to travel up and down the east coast. On top of that…I’m passionate about visiting various zoos and aquariums.

A few months ago my family had the opportunity to visit The Baltimore Aquarium in Baltimore Maryland. We have been to this aquarium a few times and every time we visit…it gets better & better than the time before. It’s located in downtown Baltimore in an area called Inner Harbor. It’s a great tourist destination!

Baltimore Aquarium Inner Harbor

For my “almost” Wordless Wednesday post for this week…I decided to share with you two photos that I took during that trip. I admit…it’s really hard to get decent photos in there because of the lighting but even so…I like to photograph as much as I can.

Have you ever visited the Baltimore Aquarium at Inner Harbor in Maryland before? If not…I highly recommend it! It’s a wonderful family-friendly place to visit and you’ll some of the most amazing sea creatures while there! Plus…they have some gorgeous birds for you to see too!

Do you enjoy visiting aquariums? If so, do you have a favorite that you like to visit? I would love to hear all about it!

  1. I haven’t visited an aquarium since I was a kid and should again soon since I love learning about all earth’s creatures. I bet my cousin has visited here since she lives close. It’s a good time to visit when the weather outside is not the best.

  2. We have visited the aquarium in Myrtle Beach, although I always think it’s too pricey.

    • Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas has an aquarium of sorts that was very beautiful. I hope to one day return.

    I love visiting aquariums and zoos. I am sure I would love this aquarium. Your photo of the shark is great even in the bad lighting.

    I haven’t been to Baltimore. It’s been a long time since I went to an aquarium, maybe since I was a kid (over 35 years ago, lol.) It really would be fun to go again.

  5. I love the Humphead Fish. It is huge, has multi colors and patterns, and looks as thought it is made of stone! It is really fascinating. Also, you can pet the jellyfish, the stingrays and, there is a marvelous 4-D film. I love our Aquarium too.

    I’ve never been to the Balitimore Aquarium, but I love the one we have here in New York. Like the Bronx Zoo, it was always a school trip every year, and I never fot tired of it. All the fish, the sea turtles – so nice to see them in their natural habitat. My favorite was always the tide ppols, that you could reach into, that had starfish, etc. They are still undergoing repairs from Hurricane Sandy, but should be finsished soo, though it’s not closed now, just some parts. When they’re done, there’s going to be a whole new shark exhibit. I love the aquarium.

  7. I love traveling and visiting zoos and aquariums too. I have been to several up and down the west coast. I really liked the Monterey Bay aquarium in California. I loved the zoo in San Diego that was a lot of fun. I remember I also went to a zoo by Seattle and it was horrible the pens for the elephants was so small I thought I was going to cry.
