    Kind of expensive for what they have. 3 exhibits closed no discount given. The snack shop closes at 2 pm even though the aquarium is open until 5. Definitely buy your tickets before arriving, 30+ people waiting to purchase tickets and only one person working the counter.

    Come early to avoid traffic (inside and out of the building)...

    Come early to avoid traffic (inside and out of the building) and parking. 930-11am is early after that you will be in traffic to get into the place to park. Our kids had a ball! We saw sea turtles, sting rays, dragons, sharks, jellyfish, etc. It was fun. We left because it was getting pretty packed about 1045am. Everyone should visit also parking is not free. They also have a trail that leads to another park. We did not have time, but I hope you do so you can tell us about it.

    I’m a member. Used to be on the Mammal Stranding Team.

    I’m a member. Used to be on the Mammal Stranding Team. Great gift shop. Wonderful exhibits. See seals swimming/being fed in outside tank. Definitely take their whale watch and Dolphin Watch tour boat. Kid friendly spot. Check out their events. Special place especially on rainy day. Plenty of free parking or take the bus.
