"Was a pretty cool place. We showed up late in the year so it was a more self guided tour buy fascinating."
"These folks really know what they're doing! We saw baby salmon, seals and a few aquarium tanks of interesting fish. Highly recommended."
"The salmon hatchery was awesome! Interpretive signs, pools full of salmon and fry, touch tanks with starfish and sea cucumbers (they felt pretty cool!) And both small and large aquariums with a multitude of sea creatures! A must see if you're in Juneau!"
"$5/person to get in, fascinating and educational. Short video explaining their process, two smaller tanks where you can touch things, and multiple huge tanks/holding areas where you can see the salmon in different stages. Very neat place!"
"I'm a very interesting stop. It's a non-profit. Make sure you at least pay five bucks to get in. That's the minimum of the nation. But heck you know throw in some more. To learn about how that they are keeping the 7 population up are the backbone of this area. They really doing something worthwhile. I did enjoy the touch pool. Being able to actually touch some of the critters from local waters. Staff is very friendly. Very helpful"
