WHAT AN AMAZING PLACE! We came here and had a great experience. The aquarium was really fun with a great variety of species. We really loved the shark tank! The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. We stopped by the Cafe and was really blown away! The Cuban sandwich was literally the best I've ever had

This aquarium was awesome. Entry was $24 when we went, and it's totally worth the price and more. When we got there, they were doing a lesson on the manatees. They have a separate mammal exhibit you walk to that's nearby. There was also sea otters in that area, along with other exhibits. Really cool to watch the manatees eat, and the sea otters swim around. They also had sea turtles you could look closely at. The volunteers and staff were knowledgeable and friendly. There's a ton of different fish to look at, as well. On that side, you're able to get a high vantage view of the sharks, you can pet star fish and helmet crabs, and you can pet the sting rays, too. There's also a little diner in there that you can eat at - we didn't, but it looked fine. There's also really cute gift shops located throughout the aquarium, and everything seemed reasonably priced and quality. I would definitely recommend checking this place out - it is totally worth it and such a great time!

I was surprised by all the marine life they had at this small aquarium, more shocked they had sharks. They have volunteer staff that are extremely knowledgeable and easy to speak with at each section of the aquarium. They even have a nice walkway in between both parts of the aquarium. It was a nice quiet time we spent at this location, I highly recommend to visit here if you have anywhere between 1-3 hours to kill. You can breeze through it quickly or take your sweet time. If memory serves me correctly, there are 2 hands on exhibits for kids and anyone who wants to pet small sharks and stingrays.

What a great aquarium. So much to do. The otters, manatees, and sea turtles are just a joy! They are so playful and fun. Very educational and well organized. A little overpriced but still a fun day out.

Did the discovery tour and had a blast! We netted some cool sea creatures. The kids loved it. Great for 3-12 year olds but even my 40 year old self highly enjoyed it! The Biologist was knowledgeable and very relaxed around the children. She was an outstanding host and person.
