Both electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes, vapes) and regular cigarettes (tobacco) are subject to identical restrictions at Miami Seaquarium.
Key Regulations
- Strict Prohibition Indoors: Smoking or vaping is banned inside all buildings, exhibits, restrooms, shops, and dining areas.
- Designated Smoking Areas Only: Outside, smoking or vaping is permitted only within specifically marked, designated smoking zones. These are typically located away from queues, exhibits, and high-traffic guest areas.
- Violations Have Consequences: Ignoring these rules (smoking/vaping outside designated zones) may result in the guest being asked to leave the premises.
Essential Considerations
- No Exceptions for Vaping: E-cigarettes are not granted special privileges. They fall under the same regulations as traditional tobacco products throughout the property.
- Identify Zones First: Locate designated smoking areas upon arrival or ask staff for directions. Do not assume vaping is allowed anywhere outdoors.
- Respect Non-Smokers: The rules prioritize the comfort and health of all guests. Always use the designated areas.
- Consider Alternatives: If designated zones are inconvenient, visitors may need to refrain from smoking/vaping entirely during their visit or explore nicotine replacement therapies (like gum or lozenges).
In summary, Miami Seaquarium’s policy treats e-cigarettes and regular cigarettes identically: strictly forbidden indoors and only allowed within specifically designated outdoor smoking areas. Always adhere to posted signage and staff instructions.
