Price notesBecause the price changes by date, priceVal is null. Secondary guides report a Wednesday-afternoon reduced-admission window with advance tickets released on Mondays (limit 4 per order); that program was not re-verified on the aquarium's own pages in this session, so it is not listed as a perk - see the research report gaps.
Age notesPricing tiers: Adult; Senior; Child 3-12; under 2 free. Sea lion shows and the shark exhibits anchor a 2-3 hour visit; pairs naturally with the Coney Island boardwalk.
