Pemberton Place

The aquarium is a must do if you visit Atlanta. You can view all kinds of aquatic life. Life from small tiny species to a 27ft 8000lb whale shark! There is even a dolphin show that do flips 15ft in the air. Everything is broken up into self guided paths allowing you the take it all in at your own.

I give the Aquarium 4 stars mainly for the Sea Lion show. Food is definitely not cheap. It was $54 for myself and my husband. Each an entrée and one drink. The aquarium is 2 floors yes, however the second floor is viewing for what’s on the bottom floor. Little deceptive there. You can definitely get through it in one day. We spent about 5 hours then walked Centennial park after. There is not any exhibits that allow you to feed or touch any animals. The dolphin show was cute as well. Take a rain coat if you plan on sitting in the first ten rows.

Top floor excellent view to look over the city. Kurt is a wonderful job showing around to the rooms and his knowledge was on point.

This place is outstanding! Beautiful plant life and very clean. It is spacious so that you can get your steps in! Absolutely gorgeous and I highly recommend it!

Apparently, Pemberton place is named after John Pemberton, the founder of Coca cola. Unsurprisingly, one of the attractions found here is the coca cola museum which I got to visit together with the Aquarium. Didn't have enough time to visit the civil rights museum but definitely checking it out next time! The outside scenery is beautiful. The place was lively and had lots of people too. The main thing for me was the close proximity of the attractions so you wont have to move from one place to the other and get to save up on time and energy.
