A Look Inside the New York Aquarium at Coney Island - Slideshow video PLUS information regarding "pay what you wish" donation for entry

June is National Zoo and Aquarium Month so I’m sharing a slideshow of photos that I took at the New York Aquarium at Coney Island several months ago. My great-aunt gifted my family with a WCS membership and we are having a blast visiting (or re-visiting) the various zoos and aquariums in the city.

Families can enjoy learning about ocean life at this aquarium, which is the only one in New York City. They offer education programs and exhibits. They also have a gift shop, eating area and room for parking. (True confession: I had one of the best fish tacos ever there.)  FYI: Admission on Wednesdays, from 3pm to last entry, is with a pay-what-you-wish donation.
