This aquarium is quite modern. The inside is very well done with numbered tanks so you don't get lost. However watch your kids as it is very crowded on weekends and some of the display areas are dark with many turns. The touch tanks are great and there a at least 3 different areas to get your hands wet. They put on talks at various times throughout the day.

Buy your tickets on-line for a slight discount. Parking is extra.
