Il New York Aquarium, un acquario americano, si trova a Brooklyn, New York. Ha una ricca storia, essendo stato fondato nel 1896 all'interno del Castle Clinton di Battery Park a Manhattan. Nel 1957 è stato trasferito a Coney Island, nel sud di Brooklyn. Questo cambiamento di sede ha permesso all'acquario di espandersi e di continuare la sua missione di educare il pubblico alla vita marina.
Su una superficie di 5,7 ettari, il New York Aquarium ospita 266 specie. I visitatori possono vedere una varietà di vita marina, tra cui pinguini del Capo, leoni marini della California, razze Rhinoptera bonasus, foche comuni, trichechi, squali toro e lontre marine. L'acquario, uno dei più antichi acquari pubblici degli Stati Uniti, offre un'opportunità unica di conoscere e apprezzare la diversità della vita marina.

El Acuario de Nueva York, ubicado en Coney Island, en Brooklyn, les brinda a los visitantes la oportunidad de explorar la vida marina de diversos ecosistemas. Las instalaciones albergan una colección diversa de especies acuáticas, que incluyen tiburones, leones marinos, pingüinos y peces tropicales. Los visitantes a menudo aprecian la exhibición Ocean Wonders: Sharks!, que proporciona una experiencia inmersiva con su túnel de arrecife de coral. Los espectáculos de leones marinos generalmente son bien recibidos y ofrecen valor tanto de entretenimiento como educativo.
Sin embargo, algunos visitantes consideran que el acuario es más pequeño de lo esperado, especialmente teniendo en cuenta el precio de la entrada. El diseño puede parecer algo anticuado en ciertas áreas, y algunas exhibiciones pueden parecer necesitadas de renovación o ampliación. Ocasionalmente, los huéspedes informan que algunos animales no están visibles o activos durante su visita, lo que puede llevar a la decepción.
A pesar de estos inconvenientes, los esfuerzos de conservación y los programas educativos del acuario son frecuentemente elogiados. Generalmente se describe al personal como bien informado y apasionado por la vida marina. La ubicación en el paseo marítimo de Coney Island se considera una ventaja, lo que permite a los visitantes combinar su visita al acuario con otras atracciones cercanas.
En general, el Acuario de Nueva York ofrece una experiencia acuática decente, aunque no siempre cumple con las altas expectativas establecidas por algunas instalaciones más grandes y modernas. Sigue siendo una atracción popular para familias y entusiastas de la vida marina, que ofrece una combinación de educación y entretenimiento.
We visited the New York Aquarium on Jun 26, 2025 as part of the Road Scholar's "American Mosaic - An NYC Exploration" program. Tickets were provided by our tour group. Parking isn't free, or cheap. We didn't have to worry about that since we took the subway.
We started at Glover's Reef and slowly moved through Conservation Hall. By "we", I meant me. There was a lot of people, and they kept walking into my shots. That meant waiting and more waiting, but it was worth it. From Conservation Hall, I exited to an outdoor area known as Sea Cliff. This area housed the otters, sea lions and penguins.
More on Sea Cliff later. I approached the Ocean Wonders: Sharks! building, went in, and was immediately greeted by the wonderful underwater glass tunnel. This was easily the most impressive gallery in the aquarium. Multitudes of marine creatures were swimming over my head with every step I took. It was breathtaking. The rest of Ocean Wonders was all about sharks... mostly. There were rays, turtles and other fishes too.
Next was the Spineless and PlayQuarium building. The Spineless gallery was not impressive, with the spider crabs and the octopus being the only standouts. No sturgeons. The collection of fishes wasn't as impressive as Ocean Wonders or Conservation Hall. We bypassed the PlayQuarium and into the gift shop. Last but not least, the sea lions. They were adorable. I took some videos but am unable to post them here. They can be found in my YouTube channel @1Somber. Look for "2025-1: American Mosaic - An NYC Exploration" playlist, and the "Day 5: Sea Lions" video.
Thankfully, we didn't have to pay for our tickets. If we had, I would insist on visiting the 4-D Theater and the Aquatheater. But we did not due to lack of time. We were given less than 2 hours and the time was almost up when we were done with the main exhibits. The New York Aquarium is definitely comparable with the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA. The visit was enjoyable. It's worth visiting one time.
