"Very informative presentations. Place was clean for us and the animals. We happen to go 2/21. We were with 2 student groups, students were polite and paying attention. ...Hats off to their teachers for good leadership."
"Don’t let the gift shop clerk discourage you, this place is AWESOME!! Ask questions and save at least an hour for the discovery center! Great value, great learning opportunity, wonderful and knowledgeable staff."
"We visited in July and my son with special needs was treated amazing by staff. He did the dolphin encounter with Ellie and she went above and beyond for him. Everyone did, down to the employee who walked us there! Thanks to Mr. Moby for getting Cade here and seeing and nurturing his love for marine life!"
"My mother and I visited here from Kentucky. We did the sea lion kiss and dolphin encounter. The staff were very friendly. You could see their compassion with helping the mammals. We loved every bit of our visit!"
"A wonderful place to visit. It’s not crowded, has a beautiful layout. Granted it’s not as big as an aquarium, but they are very knowledgeable about the animals and have wonderful experiences for people to experience. The ray pool was my favorite, plus it’s a nice way to catch a break from summer temps. You won’t break the bank with a visit. It was fun to watch the little ones see dolphins and sea lions up close. The parakeets are so much fun to watch."
