So cute and so much fun. Mostly for kids but was still very fun!

While I really enjoyed petting the sharks, I don't feel like the twenty-three dollars we spent to get in for the three of us was worth it.

Small but perfect for those with small children as you can see everything, it's not overwhelming. The staff is always super friendly and my little ones love the touch pools!

Probably a great place to bring kids as most of the experiences are geared towards them. Some cool displays however not really worth the admission unless you have kids with you

Fun in conjunction with the main campus but not worth it on its own. After more than five years, time to update the jellies.

It's a bit small but has an awesome little area with glow in the dark jelly fish and stuff like that.

It's​ a nice small museum. Kids will enjoy interacting in the tidepool tank and the shark touch tank. Also, they have a cool exhibit of jellyfishes (medusas).

Great little place on Stearn's Wharf. Perfect for children and adults. Friendly staff. Not very big but lots of fun, interactive things to do and a lot to learn. Those with sensitivities to smell will be cautioned to the plasticine dolphin upstairs. The odor is not too strong but definitely present. I wasn't bothered by it but others may be. Great views of the ocean and shore from upstairs.

Excellent location and we enjoyed our visit, but it's quite small. (Yes, I realize the pier location limits the size.) If you'd like a place to stop in for a quick educational experience, go here.

always fun for the kids. Looking forward to the new moxi musuem as well so I can take kids to both in the same trip.
