This is by far one of my very favorite attractions at the beach. Not to mention the beach is our second home away from home!

Overcrowded and not a lot to see. The shark tank is the only attraction worth going for. considering the price though, I would not recommend.

Just went there today. Was terrible, my nephew is in a wheelchair and it's very difficult to maneuver in there and the staff was rude when we asked for help

Way over priced for a mediocre aquarium. Okay for kids. The staff that was there were not knowledgeable about the fish in the tanks. Don't waste your money

Provided by SuperpagesDespite the price ($24 per adult I think), this is a great stop for kids and adults alike. We have gone back every year for the past five years. We especially like the moving sidewalk through the giant aquarium tunnel where you are underneath an aquarium teaming with favorites like sea turtles, sharks, barracudas, and more!

To me it was a great place for a child to go. There was a lot of hands on stuff to do.

This is a great place to take the kids where they can get up close and personal with some of the sea animals!
