Glen Echo Park Aquarium is a Chesapeake Bay Learning Center that exhibits the life of the bay as well as the life of the rivers that flow into the bay. We are hands-on and love helping visitors learn not only at our touch tank, but on our Nautical Classroom, Geologic Discovery Center, and our many teaching games. A great little aquarium with a big mission!

We visited the aquarium with our one year old daughter and her friend and had a great time! Appointments are required right now because of COVID so it was just us in the aquarium and we got a wonderful private tour! They have fish, turtles, crabs, an eel and more plus a touch tank with horseshoe crabs, clams, squid, etc. The aquarium is brilliantly laid out in order from fresh water to salt water so you can learn about what you can find in your own backyard as well as the Chesapeake. The adults learned a lot too! They also have a sandbox and huge outdoor play area. Highly recommend especially right now with so much closed due to COVID.

Reviewed By Parisfan072 - Washington DC, United States
Glen Echo was an amusement park for years. It closed, I believe in the late 1950s or early 1960s. It is a unique spot with wonderful architecture and a whole new host of attractions, although the original Dentzel carousel horse remains the centerpiece. It hosts regular dances and concerts, as well as classes in the arts. It's a genuine treasure that is well worth your acquaintance.
