Reviews
"Such a lovely aquarium that was so much fun for the family to go through. Plus the scenery is beyond gorgeous. We spent a good 3 hours there and saw just about everything. Highly recommend it especially if you have young kiddos."
"A beautiful and fun smaller aquarium! You will need to plan your visit smartly if you want to have a relaxing time. As others have said, parking lot gets difficult as the day goes on. We enjoyed our visit very much!"
"A great experience for adults and kids. The aquarium is relatively small compared to others. However, it is right sized for shorter attention spans, well maintained/run, close to other sites and attractions in the area, and the ocean and coastline views are unbeatable. Should be on your top 10 list for the area."
"Smaller aquarium with excellent exhibits. We enjoyed the clear displays and informative signs. Parking lot is free, but it gets crowded. By 1030, there was a line of cars down the hill. Consider this when planning for your ticket times of you purchased in advance."
"A bit smaller than I anticipated, and the weather didn't allow for the tidal ponds to be "open" (pouring rain), but they did bring some of the interactive experiences inside to see. I would recommend going in the afternoon so you'll miss the school field trips. Overall, it was still a great experience!"
