Tennessee Aquarium

This is really an aquarium, where there are tons of species of plants and animals. If you’re trying to choose between the two pick this one (plus Chattanooga is the most wonderful city in the world- especially compared to the god-awful downtown Atlanta.)

I lived just south of here growing up so I have been here over a dozen times (field trips), but it never gets old. My husband and I had our first date here about two years ago and literally spent 6 hours getting to know each other and touring the aquarium. It is the perfect date place early on.

Went for my birthday, and it was the best time, ever.

it’s good if you’re a tourist. i live in chattanooga, and i’ve been to the aquarium so many times, it’s kind of boring now. i am wanting to go see their new penguin exhibit though.

great

I love the river otters! I can watch them for…several minutes. Maybe 15 minutes. The aquarium is great, and it’s a beautiful location at night.

Great family fun.

Definately worth going! You get to pet sharks and sting rays and sturgeons, and the butterfly house is just gorgeous.

Designed by the same folks who did the Boston Aquarium as well as another in Japan, worth the journey

Really, really. Go here.

Great layout takes you from the mountains to the coastal deltas. Winding pathway lets you see exhibits from many differenet angles. Kids had a great time!
